Sixers Sign Former Blazer Caleb Love
3 Jul
Summary
- Caleb Love agreed to a two-way contract with the Sixers.
- He averaged 10.4 points in 49 games for the Trail Blazers.
- Love joins a guard rotation including Tyrese Maxey and Anfernee Simons.
The Philadelphia 76ers are strengthening their guard position by signing Caleb Love to a two-way contract. This move follows a recent agreement with Rayan Rupert on a similar deal.
Love brings NBA experience from his rookie season with the Portland Trail Blazers, where he appeared in 49 games. He averaged 10.4 points, 2.5 assists, and 2.3 rebounds per contest in just over 20 minutes of playing time.
His collegiate career spanned five seasons across three different programs, including North Carolina and Arizona. Love is recognized as a confident scorer, having achieved at least 20 points on eight occasions last year. However, his shooting efficiency, particularly from the field and beyond the arc, indicates areas for development.
With this signing, the Sixers' guard lineup now includes Tyrese Maxey, VJ Edgecombe, Anfernee Simons, Labaron Philon Jr., and Love. Simons, at 27 years old, is the most veteran presence in this group.
