The Philadelphia 76ers signed 2017 second-round pick Jonah Bolden to a four-year contract worth $7 million, sources told Yahoo Sports' Shams Charania. The contract reportedly includes team options.
A 6-foot-10 forward, Bolden was selected No. 36 overall in last year's draft, but he opted to remain overseas for the 2017-18 season. In 29 EuroLeague appearances with Israel's Maccabi Tel Aviv, the 22-year-old Australian averaged 6.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 1.2 steals per game.
Bolden also averaged 6.5 points and six rebounds in six appearances while playing for the Sixers' summer league squad earlier this month.
