On Tuesday, the Sixers sent Caleb Martin to the Dallas Mavericks in a deal that netted them sharpshooter Quentin Grimes. Philadelphia is looking for financial flexibility as well as Grimes' ability to shoot the ball at a high clip and defend on the other end of the floor.

Caleb Martin walked into the 76ers’ locker room in street clothes around 6:10 p.m. Tuesday, ready to offer individual goodbyes to each teammate sitting at their stall. Ricky Council IV jokingly pretended to cry.

Although he’s been in the league for almost six years, Caleb Martin made himself a well-known figure to NBA fans during the 2023 playoffs. He was pivotal in helping the Miami Heat reach the NBA Finals as the East’s eighth seed, taking down Boston in a seven-game Eastern Conference Finals battle.
