Report: 76ers trading Holmes to Suns

The Philadelphia 76ers are trading center Richaun Holmes to the Phoenix Suns in exchange for cash considerations, league sources told Yahoo Sports' Shams Charania.

The Bowling Green product has been a steady reserve in the Sixers' frontcourt rotation. Pressed into greater minutes while teammate Joel Embiid missed significant time in 2016-17, Holmes averaged career highs in points (9.8), rebounds (5.5), and blocks (one) per game in 21 minutes a night.

Holmes is in the final year of his current contract. The 24-year-old is set to make $1.6 million this coming season before hitting unrestricted free agency.
