The Philadelphia 76ers are on the path to adding another player to the roster this week.

Over the weekend, it was revealed the Sixers are in discussions with Real Madrid star Guerschon Yabusele. If all goes right with the contract buyout, the 76ers will finalize a deal to sign Yabusele for the 2024-2025 NBA season.

Recently, Yabusele made headlines for his performance at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Joining France’s squad for the run, Yabusele managed to stand out on a team that possessed two NBA All-Stars in Rudy Gobert and Victor Wembanyama.

Yabusele helped France put together a run to the Paris Olympic Finals. Once again, Yabusele was a standout for Paris against Joel Embiid and Team USA, but France came up short. The silver medal winner generated enough buzz in France to garner attention from several NBA teams.

The Philadelphia 76ers on SI show is available on Spotify, Apple, and Amazon streaming platforms.

Details of the Deal

Once Yabusele’s buyout with Real Madrid is settled, he is expected to join the Sixers on a veteran’s minimum deal. The veteran forward is set to return to the NBA for a second stint. He’s on pace to land his second NBA contract after spending time with the Boston Celtics earlier in his career.
