76ers regret waiving Champagnie for dunk contest

The Philadelphia 76ers made the questionable decision to waive Julian Champagnie in order to sign Mac McClung for the NBA Dunk Contest. McClung played only two regular season games for the 76ers in that stint, while Champagnie has since become a valuable contributor for the San Antonio Spurs. tr-sport.click

In a recent closeout game, Champagnie impressed with 19 points, seven rebounds, and three assists while shooting 6-for-9 from the field, including 5-for-7 from three-point range. The 37.5% career 3-point shooter's length and floor spacing have proven valuable for the Spurs, making the Sixers' decision look particularly regrettable.
