Sixers: Best free agent target of each Western Conference playoff team
Best free agent target of each Western Conference playoff team: Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks.
This isn’t the first time I’ve had Otto Porter Jr. as a potential target for the Sixers. Last offseason I had him as a target, but he ended up signing with the Golden State Warriors and had a good season with them.
He’s a good 3-and-D wing who could either start or come off the bench for the Philadelphia 76ers if they can sign him this offseason. He did a great job rehabbing his value this season and could command a mid-level exception this offseason.

To be honest, the Dallas Mavericks only have three potential free agents this summer. Former 76er Trey Burke has a player option and will probably exercise it. Jalen Brunson is going to command way more than what the Sixers can offer so that leaves wing Theo Pinson as the defacto option for Philly could pursue.
Pinson has been a fringe NBA player for most of his career and who in theory can be a solid 3-point option. There’s a reason why he’s on a two-way contract with the Mavericks. He’s not a great option and easily the least talented player on this list, but he’s the only realistic option on Dallas that Philly can pursue.
