Report: Sixers sign Shawn Long to 2-year deal

The Philadelphia 76ers have agreed to a partially guaranteed, two-year deal with former Louisiana-Lafayette forward Shawn Long, The Vertical's Shams Charania reports, citing league sources.

Long is coming off of a four-year career with Louisiana-Lafayette, averaging 18.9 points, 12.1 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks in his senior season.

Philadelphia's frontcourt is already crowded, so Long may struggle to make the Sixers' opening-night roster if general manager Bryan Colangelo fails to make any major offseason moves.
