The Philadelphia 76ers have expressed desire in signing free agent shooting guard Jamal Crawford, according to Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Crawford immediately put himself on the map as soon as he declined to pick up his player-option with the Minnesota Timberwolves, deciding to test the free agency waters for a second straight year.

The three-time Sixth Man of the Year is receiving interest from several teams, including the Golden State Warriors, who could use their mid-level exception on him, if he agrees to a contract.

The Sixers, meanwhile, have $13 million left in cap space after bringing starting shooting guard J.J. Redick back on a one-year deal.

Both players played together for four seasons with the L.A. Clippers and already share a bond from their stint in Lob City.

Philadelphia is coming off losing one of their best shooters in Marco Belinelli, who quickly signed back with the San Antonio Spurs minutes into the start of free agency, getting a two-year, $12 million deal for his services.

Crawford could fill that same role, as well as relieve some of the playmaking duties once Ben Simmons heads to the bench.

The 6-foot-5 offensive spark plug posted some of his worst averages while buried in the Timberwolves bench, averaging 10.1 points, 2.3 assists, and 1.2 rebounds in a mere 20.7 minutes per game.
