The Philadelphia 76ers have brought in Darius Bazley on a 10-day deal from their G League affiliate, the Delaware Blue Coats. The Sixers had open roster spots after their trade deadline moves.
Bazley was the 23rd pick of the 2019 NBA draft and played 228 games for the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Phoenix Suns. He signed with the Brooklyn Nets during the past offseason but was waived before the season started. He has career averages of 9.1 points and 5.3 rebounds.
President of Basketball Operations Daryl Morey took to X to welcome Bazley to the Sixers with a YouTube clip of his highlights in the G League.

Considering Bazley is on a 10-day deal, he will have to prove himself in a short amount of time. His athleticism and defensive ability will go a long way in that regard.
