Redick to 1-Year Contract<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p class=\"_ad_q1\">Redick&#8217;s contract will take him through the end of the 2018-2019 season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_ad_q1\">Redick averaged 17.0 points and 3.0 assists while shooting 42% from three per game last season for the Philadelphia 76ers. He is coming off of a career year as he experienced a larger role with the 76ers than in years past with the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonprobasketball.com\/nba-teams\/los-angeles-clippers\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Los Angeles Clippers<\/a>. Redick set a career high in 3 point attempts this season. His 6.6 attempts from the three-point this season brought unprecedented value to a young 76ers team. Redick was also a key contributor to the 76ers playoff run, increasing his points per game to 18.2 in the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_ad_q1\">Looking ahead, Redick will provide lights-out shooting from the outside. Redick is also an unselfish player who will keep the ball moving when his shot isn&#8217;t there. Redick will also be a great veteran to have in the locker room for the younger players on the roster. The Philadelphia 76ers\u00a0are hoping that the mix of Redick&#8217;s shooting, leadership, and commitment on both sides of the floor will help push them to a deep playoff run in the 2018-19 season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_ad_q1\">Redick is going into his 13th season in the league, during which he&#8217;ll be 34 years old. He has played on 4 teams in his career, most recently the Los Angeles Clippers and the Philadelphia 76ers. The <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonprobasketball.com\/nba-teams\/orlando-magic\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Orlando Magic<\/a> drafted him 11th overall in 2006.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to reports, the Philadelphia 76ers have agreed to sign unrestricted free agent shooting guard J.J.
