The Philadelphia 76ers have reached an agreement to sign former Portland Trail Blazers player Love, according to @ShamsCharania. The deal was finalized on Friday by agents Mark Bartelstein and Torrian Jones of Priority Sports.
Love joins the 76ers following a rookie campaign in Portland where he proved to be a productive rotation piece, averaging 10.4 points and 2.5 assists per game. His arrival in Philadelphia marks the latest move in a rapid roster overhaul for the franchise.
The Philadelphia 76ers have been remarkably active over the last 24 hours, securing multiple pieces from the Portland organization. In addition to Love, the team has successfully added Anfernee Simons and Rayan Rupert to their roster since Thursday.
While the specific financial terms of the agreement have not yet been disclosed, Love is expected to provide backcourt depth and scoring for a Philadelphia team looking to bolster its bench. The 76ers front office continues to be aggressive in the market as the offseason progresses.
