Sixers Interested In Hunter, Declercq; Plan To Sign Undrafted Players
25th July, 2005 - 11:28 am

Philadelphia Daily News - Now that the Philadelphia Sixers have re-signed their starting center Samuel Dalembert, they will now turn their attention to getting a backup for him.

"The Sixers have contacted 7-foot unrestricted free agent Steven Hunter, who appeared in 76 games with the Phoenix Suns last season, and 6-10 unrestricted free agent Andrew DeClerq, a 10-year veteran who spent the last 5 seasons with the Orlando Magic . DeClerq appeared in just eight games last season after undergoing knee surgery; he made 53 starts for the Magic in '03-04.

The Sixers have been interested in Declercq before when he was a free agent a few years back.

In other news, the Sixers are expected to sign Duke forward Shavlik Randolph and Fairfield star Deng Gai sometime after the NBA lifts it's moratorium on signings. [READ]

Bad news...because Sixers already have: Dalembert, Webb, and AI. We definitely need Hunter as our backup or Center 1b with James as 1a

I like Hunter a lot more than Jerome James. But now that we have Jerome James, honestly, if we add Hunter, Channing Frye will be done in my opinion.

Nalod! the reason I want Hunter to be a Knick is because I value his length, youth and affordability amongst the available big men out there right now

I'm tired of the same song. If Frye is a PF, then Sweetney and even Maurice Taylor are better than him at that position.
Frye better be a center, and a good one, because if he is not, Isiah will have a problem.

wait, the sixers just gave $10m to Dalembert- and don't they still have Marc Jackson- and they're out looking for another center?
