The 76ers signed a former Grizzlies backcourt star. His performance with the Rockets during the summer league is slightly average?

The Philadelphia 76ers officially announced that the team has signed four free agents, namely forward Emoni Bates, backcourt player Kennedy Chandler, winger Malcolm Hill and forward Jaylen Martin. Considering that the current salary space of the 76ers is relatively limited and they do not have enough places, we can basically confirm that these players have all received training camp contracts containing Exhibit 10 terms. It is estimated that it will be difficult for them to get the opportunity to stay in the team after the start of the regular season. They should most likely appear in the Delaware Blue Shirts lineup of the 76ers' subordinate team after the start of the new season.

Candler was born in September 2002 and is 23 years old, 183cm tall and weighs 78kg. He is the backcourt star selected by the Memphis Grizzlies in the 38th pick in the second round in the 2022 NBA Draft. Chandler has played 36 times in his rookie season, averaging 7.8 minutes per game, averaging 2.2 points, 1.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.3 steals, and 0.1 blocks. He also had 0.5 turnovers and 0.4 fouls. His shooting percentage was 42.2%, his three-point shooting percentage was 13.3%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 46.2%. Chandler did not get a stable playing time and performance opportunity in his rookie season. His data in the NBA are also relatively bleak, and he cannot play his talents in all aspects. At the end of the 2022-23 season, due to the lack of manpower in the interior, Kenneth Lofton Jr., who was holding a two-way contract, performed very well. In the end, Chandler was also cut by the team, and he has never appeared in the NBA Development League again since then.

Candler played for the Toronto Raptors' NBA Development League team 905 last season. In the NBA Development League last season, Chandler played 50 games in total, averaging 24.1 minutes per game, averaging 13.1 points, 2.8 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.3 steals, 0.3 blocks, and 1.9 turnovers and 1.9 fouls. He shot 48% from the field, 36% from three-point shooting percentage and 65.1% from free throws. Previously, Chandler also represented the Rockets in the NBA Summer League. He played 5 games in the summer league, averaging 31.1 minutes per game, averaging 18.2 points, 2.6 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.8 steals, 0.6 blocks, and 2.6 turnovers and 2.4 fouls. He shot 38.8%, three-point shooting percentage 28%, and free throw shooting percentage 61.1%.

Candler's performance in the NBA Development League and during the NBA Summer League can only be considered a sloppy level. His offensive efficiency is not ideal, his passing and organizational skills are not so outstanding, and his defensive ability is not very outstanding. Chandler has not made substantial progress in the past few seasons, which has largely led to his inability to return to the NBA arena. However, Chandler was also the top five-star high school student in the United States at that time, and he was once a player who was highly anticipated by everyone. I don’t know what he will perform in the NBA Development League in the new season.
