Report: Sixers interested in bringing Iguodala back to Philly

It's unknown whether the small forward will meet with any of seven interested teams, ESPN reported.

The 76ers are among the teams interested in signing Andre Iguodala in free agency, according to ESPN.

The report said the Sixers, San Antonio Spurs, Brooklyn Nets, Minnesota Timberwolves, Orlando Magic, Utah Jazz and Los Angeles Clippers join Golden State in wanting to sign the Warriors small forward once free agency begins at 12:01 a.m. Saturday.

However, it's unknown if he will meet with any of those squads, per the report. If would be Iguodala's second go-round with the Sixers if he decides to come to Philly. The team selected him with the ninth overall pick in the 2004 NBA draft. He was traded to the Denver Nuggets as part of a four-team deal on Aug. 10, 2012.

Iguodala and the Warriors have won two of the last three NBA titles. He was named the Finals MVP in 2015.

It doesn't make sense for Iguodala to come back to Philadelphia unless he's trying to get a huge contract.
