Sixers Waive Dalen Terry
The move gives Philadelphia room to complete the signings, but the team still needs one more salary cut to stay below the first apron.
- On Sunday, the Philadelphia 76ers waived Dalen Terry to clear roster space for incoming free agents LeBron James and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.
- To complete the signings, Philadelphia must clear $6.235 million in breathing room below the first apron, as the team sat $3,418,542 below the cap Sunday morning.
- Philadelphia holds $205,596,458 in obligations against a $209,015,000 hard cap for 2026-27 because the team used the non-taxpayer mid-level exception, forcing compliance with the first apron.
- Management must trim $323,049 more in salary by potentially waiving or trading Jabari Walker or Johni Broome to finalize both transactions while staying under the apron.
- Regardless of which players are cut, the Sixers expect to enter the season with an open roster spot, preserving flexibility to add depth as needs emerge.
