[Pompey] The 76ers are in discussions to try and sign Miami Heat free agent and former Sixer Haywood Highsmith. He could demand anywhere from $6 million to $8 million based on his improved play and impact as a role player.
The Sixers have interest in trading for Brooklyn Nets power forward Dorian Finny-Smith. They’ve also been in discussions with Miami Heat free agent and former Sixer Haywood Highsmith as a free-agent option. Houston Rockets free agent Reggie Bullock could be another option, but maybe for minimum salary.
Highsmith came into the league on a Sixers two-way contract in Jan. 8, 2019. After being waived on June 24, 2019, he spent time with the Delaware Blue Coats, where he received multiple 10-day contracts with Miami before the Heat signed him to a standard contract on March 8, 2022. Highsmith had career earnings of $4.2 million over his three NBA seasons. However, he could demand anywhere from $6 million to $8 million based on his improved play and impact as a role player.
