The Philadelphia 76ers traded the rights to the 23rd overall pick of Thursday night's NBA draft and Danny Green to the Memphis Grizzlies for De'Anthony Melton, a source told the Associated Press.
The Sixers selected Colorado State's David Roddy and he will be sent to Memphis, said the person, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the trade was not yet official.
Philadelphia has had just two draft picks over the last 10 years to make a significant contribution to the team. Aside of NBA scoring champion Joel Embiid and guard Tyrese Maxey, the 76ers appear open to trading other players on the roster following a second-round exit.
