No one wants to play for the Philadelphia 76ers… except Oklahoma City Thunder guard Dion Waiters. Well, maybe.
A source recently told Philly.com’s Keith Pompey that Waiters had designs on returning to his hometown after this season:
“He wants to come home,” said the source, noting that Waiters is from South Philly. “Plus, he knows that he could be the missing shooting guard they need. And he could possibly get a [very lucrative] contract with the Sixers.”
Waiters, of course, denied the report on Twitter, but we’re not buying it after this horrific sequence during tonight’s game against the Grizzlies:

That type of basketball definitely does seem to mesh with Philly’s tanking philosophy.
