What’s the buzz on Twitter?
Austin Krell @NBAKrell
The Sixers layered their wing rotation with one of the best role players left on the market, signing Caleb Martin out of Miami & waiving Paul Reed on Saturday.

Four years, $32 million for Caleb Martin? That’s a really nice offseason for Daryl Morey.
I assume K.J. Martin is now about to get paid a very handsome one-year salary? – 12:34 PM

A the end of last season, the Heat were able to field a defensive-stopper closing lineup of Bam Adebayo, Jimmy Butler, Caleb Martin, Haywood Highsmith, Delon Wright. Now? – 12:23 PM

On a personal note, Caleb Martin (@Calebmartin14) was one of my favorite players I ever covered. Always willing to talk (on and off the record) and it was inspiring to watch his development. I wish him the best of luck in Philly. – 11:48 AM

And now, with Paul George and Caleb Martin signed, all eyes turn to see what the Sixers do with KJ Martin’s next contract.
Us cap nerds need this to happen. – 11:39 AM

Philly’s starting five now is Maxey, George, Martin, Oubre, and Embiid.

The Sixers’ newly revamped rotation:
Starters = Tyrese Maxey, Kelly Oubre Jr., Paul George, Caleb Martin, Joel Embiid
Second Unit = Jared McCain, Eric Gordon, Andre Drummond
Philadelphia will continue to be active on the veteran’s minimum market to round out their depth. pic.twitter.com/bpKxTkwc04 – 11:14 AM
Gina Mizell @ginamizell
Can confirm the Sixers have agreed to a multi-year contract with Caleb Martin and will waive Paul Reed to clear the necessary cap space for that deal. Martin fills a significant roster hole after the departures of Harris and Batum

Wes Goldberg @wcgoldberg
The reporting around Caleb Martin is what I thought made the most sense (and said on the pod this week)
Heat offered Martin a contract that would have required him to pick up his $7.1M player option but included a significant raise going forward. Martin turned it down. – 11:10 AM

In the 2023 Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics, Caleb Martin averaged:
19.3 points

60.2% shooting overall
Helluva pickup #Sixers – 11:03 AM

Heat made a very good offer to Caleb Martin before free agency. When Martin’s 76ers salary leaks, we will know how they compare. Miami could not make similar offer after free agency started because it would have involved Martin opting in with much bigger salaries in subsequent – 10:30 AM
Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat
Per multiple NBA sources: Caleb Martin had turned down a five-year, $65 million extension ahead of free agency, one that would have required him to opt into the final year on his Heat contract by last Saturday’s deadline. That offer no longer was possible once he opted out. – 10:29 AM
Keith Pompey @PompeyOnSixers
Caleb Martin is another great addition for the Sixers, especially in the era of position-less basketball. The 6-5 forward averaged 10 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists last season with the Miami Heat. Give the Sixers credit for being persistent in their pursuit of Martin. – 10:25 AM

Bobby Marks: When the dust settles, Philadelphia will be a good case study on maximizing cap space. By Tyrese Maxey not extending last offseason, Philadelphia was able to sign Paul George, Andre Drummond and Caleb Martin with room. Kelly Oubre Jr. will be signed with the room exception. -via Twitter @BobbyMarks42 / July 6, 2024
