Dario Saric will soon be a member of the Philadelphia 76ers.
The 2014 first-rounder told reporters he's headed to the Sixers this summer, ESPN's Marc Stein reports, citing sources. It is currently unclear when he'll arrive in Philadelphia, but the Sixers are reportedly hoping to have him by month's end.
Saric was chosen with the 12th pick by the Orlando Magic two years ago, later getting traded to Philadelphia on draft night.
Saric averaged 11.7 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 1.5 assists on 50 percent shooting in 24 games for Anadolu Efes this season.
At 6-foot-10, Saric only adds to the logjam in the Sixers' frontcourt, so Philadelphia may be forced to make a trade prior to the start of the season.
