The Sixer Sense Podcast returns following the big news that the Utah Jazz gave Paul Reed an offer sheet for 3 years and $23 million. Being that Reed is a restricted free agent, the Sixers can match any offer, however, Danny Ainge put a poison pill in the contract that makes it difficult for the Sixers to re-sign Reed.

Lucas Johnson and Jonathan Geib welcome back a familiar voice to the podcast for the second straight week. This time Uriah Young is back and the trio gives out their grades for the Sixers’ free-agent signings thus far. Will Pat Beverly, Mo Bamba, or Montrzel Harrell be able to provide a spark off the bench? The group debates whether the Sixers improved the bench or not after they also had Shake Milton, Jalen McDaniels, and Georges Niang depart for supposed greener pastures.
