Philadelphia 76ers interested in signing Joe Johnson

After failing to find a team during the 18-19 season, Joe Johnson has rebuilt his reputation in the BIG3

Joe Johnson has been among the most impressive performers in the Big3 league, and ESPN is reporting that the former All-Star is set to work out with the Philadelphia 76ers:

Former NBA All-Star Joe Johnson is in Philadelphia preparing for a workout with the 76ers on Thursday. Johnson, 38, also is receiving interest for potential workouts from the LA Clippers, the Milwaukee Bucks, the Denver Nuggets and the New Orleans Pelicans.

With interest from the Sixers and four other teams, the chances of Johnson making a return to the NBA look good. He spent time with the Utah Jazz and Houston Rockets during the 17-18 season but sat out the entire 18-19 campaign. As a seven-time All-Star, Johnson holds career averages of 16.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 3.9 assists per game.
