While the Philadelphia 76ers made their quick move to sign P.J. Tucker in free agency, they have now brought in another teammate of James Harden’s during their time together wth the Houston Rockets.
President Daryl Morey has continued to bring in former Rockets as they have agreed to a 2-year $8.5 million deal to bring in Danuel House on a deal. He spent a little over three seasons in Houston, two of them with Harden, and he is a career 36.6% shooter from deep.
House Jr. played for three teams in the 2021-22 season, last with the Utah Jazz, and he averaged 5.9 points and 2.6 rebounds and he shot 37.6% from deep. He will add to the depth that the Sixers need off their bench in order to move forward.
Free agent Danuel House has agreed to a two-year, $8.5M deal with the 76ers, sources tell ESPN.

The Sixers needed to add toughness to their roster and they have done so with their first two free agency signings in Tucker and House. They also both have connections to Harden and Morey so that makes this a smooth transition for both players.
