Sixers trade #1 overall pick for Elliot Williams!

[Wizard Mentor]

Actually....
They waived former #1 overall pick Kwame Brown (selected by Michael Jordan) and Darius Morris. They signed Elliot Williams.

Here's the story from blazersedge

Congrats to Williams and good luck with your new team.

I think he'll be a damn good role player. Jumps out of the gym. Just needs to catch on with a team.

Good for Elliot.

Yeah, I was glad to hear Mike and Mike say that during the game last night. Would have loved to see what he could do here if he'd been healthy.

Nah. Roy retired.

Minnesota is nice, huh?

Good luck to him!

Its crazy to think we drafted a guy in the first round knowing he'd miss his entire rookie year with double knee surgery.
