The Philadelphia 76ers announced on Monday that they signed Serbian forward Filip Petrusev and Lithuanian forward Azuolas Tubelis to contracts.
Petrusev, the 50th pick by the 76ers in 2021, reportedly signed a two-year standard contract after playing the past two seasons overseas, according to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype. The contract is partially guaranteed for the upcoming season and is non-guaranteed for Year 2.
The 23-year-old helped lead Crvena zvezda to the Serbian League title last season after averaging 11 points and 4.9 rebounds on 57.3% shooting from the field.
He averaged 12.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in two summer league games.

Tubelis signed a two-way contract and will split his time between Philly and Delaware in the G League. He is eligible to spend no more than 50 games in the NBA and will earn a flat salary equal to 50% of the minimum salary applicable to a player with zero years of service.
The 21-year-old was an All-American last season at Arizona after averaging 19.8 points, 9.1 rebounds, two assists and 1.1 steals. He produced the sixth-most points (694) in a season in program history and the ninth-most rebounds (320).
He totaled 10 points in four summer league games.
