“See you next year”, said Belinelli to the media after his final press conference of the season, but the Italian sharpshooter, Ilyasova and even JJ Redick are not a lock for next season’s roster, especially in the case that the Sixers will try and lure LeBron James or another big name free agent like Paul George.

“I’m sure we all hope that I am back,” admitted Redick said according to NBC sports. “The numbers can get tricky. It’s not my job to worry about that. I’ll let [general manager] Bryan [Colangelo], my agent and the events of the next two months play out, and we’ll make a decision.”

“I really love to play for coach Bret Brown,” Ilyasova explained. “The way he coaches, for me, he’s more like a player-coach. He communicates with players with a high level, and you always knew what to expect from him. I think the most important thing for the players is just to know what coach wants from you, and just deliver.”

“We really have a great relationship, me and coach Brown,” Belinelli added. “With Bryan, too, when I was in Toronto, Bryan was there, so we know each other. But coach Brown is great. He gave me the possibility to come here, and [I was] really born again after a couple years in Sacramento, Charlotte, Atlanta, and he gave me the possibility to be myself. That, for me, was really important.”
