Amir Johnson Reportedly Finalizing Deal to Re-Sign with 76ers on 1-Year Contract
Free-agent center Amir Johnson is reportedly finalizing a one-year deal to return to the Philadelphia 76ers in 2018-19, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on Wednesday.
Johnson returned to a reserve role for most of the 2017-18 season with the Sixers after spending the majority of the previous four years as a starter with the Boston Celtics and Toronto Raptors.
His involvement doesn't see a massive change whether he's in the lineup or coming off the bench, though. He averaged 4.6 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.6 assists for the Sixers this past season after putting up 6.5 points, 4.6 boards and 1.8 dimes per game the previous campaign with the Celtics.
