When the Philadelphia 76ers sent James Harden to the Los Angeles Clippers on Halloween, they had to make a corresponding move because they received more players than they sent out.
To make room, the Sixers waived Danny Green. Philadelphia brought Green back on a one-year deal after he spent the 2022-23 season with the Memphis Grizzlies and the Cleveland Cavaliers. He played two games with the Sixers before he was waived.
While on FanDuel’s “Run it Back,” Green admitted he roots for the teams he used to play for. Especially, the Sixers as he hopes for the chance to return:
I will say this, I am not rooting against Philly right now. I’m still watching those guys. I root for my friends on the team that I left, I still want to see them do well. The team itself? You don’t want to see do well unless you leave on a really good note. Toronto, I left on a really good note. LA, I left on a pretty good note, but still, you kinda watch how they’re playing, you don’t hope they do so great that you’re gone, but with Philly, I’m still rooting for them because I think there’s an opportunity for me to end up back there. Hopefully, in the near future.

Green is a veteran player who can still produce. Whether the Sixers will be able to find a roster spot for him remains to be seen, but if Philadelphia were to bring him back, he would be helpful on the floor and in the locker room.
