The Philadelphia 76ers have exercised the fourth-year contract option on Jaden Springer for the 2024-25 season.  

There was some speculation that the Sixers could decline the option to maximize their available cap space for the 2024 offseason.

Originally selected with the 28th overall selection of the 2021 NBA Draft, Springer, 21, has appeared in 20 games across two-plus NBA seasons. Springer has averaged 2.3 points on 47.5 percent shooting in 20 career games.       

A native of North Carolina, Springer boasts career averages of 17.2 points (48.0% FG), 5.0 rebounds, and 2.0 steals in 43 games (42 starts) with the Delaware Blue Coats – Philadelphia’s G League affiliate.
