The Philadelphia 76ers signed free agent center Drew Gordon from Delaware of the NBA Development League on Monday.

Gordon appeared in six preseason games for the 76ers, averaging 7.8 points and 4.2 rebounds in 15.9 minutes per game. He also played for the Sixers entry in the 2014 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas.

Since being eligible for the 2012 draft, Gordon has played overseas. He spent his final two collegiate seasons at New Mexico after transferring from UCLA. Gordon’s younger brother, Aaron, was the fourth overall pick by Orlando in the 2014 draft.

The Sixers also waived forward Malcolm Thomas.
