The Philadelphia 76ers are preparing for the NBA free agency period set to begin on June 30. With around $173 million committed to player salaries, they will need to make strategic decisions regarding team options on Dominick Barlow, Trendon Watford, and Dalen Terry. Three power forwards under consideration are John Collins, who averaged 13.6 points and 5.3 rebounds last season, Dean Wade, known for his defensive ability and shooting, and Taurean Prince, a seasoned player coming off injury but with strong three-point shooting capabilities. The Sixers have the $15 million non-taxpayer mid-level exception available to bolster their roster.
