Sixers add 7-foot-6 Tacko Fall, Jameer Nelson Jr. to training camp

The Philadelphia 76ers have added Tacko Fall, Jameer Nelson Jr., and Saint Thomas to training camp contracts, with Fall heightening attention as a 7'6" center who recently played overseas. The deals are Exhibit 10 training camp contracts that can lead to bonuses if players join the Delaware Blue Coats, and all three still hold two-way eligibility, leaving the team one open two-way contract spot. Fall, a former Celtic and Cavalier, is returning to the NBA after years abroad, while Nelson Jr. is the son of longtime Sixers executive Jameer Nelson and spent last season with the Stockton Kings; Thomas is a 6'7" wing who played for Philadelphia's G League affiliate. Although these players may not immediately crack the regular-season roster, the trio provides depth and a potential pathway to the G League for development. The signings come against a backdrop of the Sixers’ high-profile offseason moves, including adding Jaylen Brown and LeBron James to pair with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, with training camp beginning later this month. Philadelphia plans to start the season with a 14-man core and make roster decisions on whether to add a 15th player as training camp unfolds.
