76ers waive Ignas Brazdeikis two weeks after acquiring him from the Knicks
NY Post
The Philadelphia 76ers have waived Ignas Brazdeikis, the team confirmed on Thursday — clearing room on their 15-man roster.
The 22-year-old forward joined the Sixers, along with point guard George Hill, at the March 25 trade deadline as part of a three-team deal with the Knicks and Thunder. The Sixers sent two second-round picks (2025 and 2026) and center Tony Bradley to the Thunder in the deal and packaged center Vincent Poirier and shooting guard Terrance Ferguson, along with several second-round picks, to the Knicks. The Knicks also traded Austin Rivers to the Thunder as part of the deal. The move didn’t come as a surprise, as the Sixers didn’t seem to specifically target Brazdeikis in the deal, hence why they included the Thunder to make the trade happen.
