The Philadelphia 76ers have had a very busy offseason so far and it seems president of basketball operations Daryl Morey is not done yet. On Tuesday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported the Sixers were planning to sign veteran point guard Reggie Jackson. Jackson has to clear waivers first after agreeing to a contract buyout with the Charlotte Hornets, who acquired Jackson from the Denver Nuggets, along with three second-round picks.

Jackson won the 2022 NBA title with the Nuggets and spent last season as the team's primary ballhandler when Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic were both off the floor. The 34-year-old averaged 10.2 points and 3.8 assists per night in that role, shooting 43.1% from the field. He was ultimately sent out of Denver for cap relief.
