[FLIP!]

The Philadelphia 76ers will add even more depth after agreeing to terms with free agent Donyell Marshall on a minimum salary contract, the Philadelphia Daily News is reporting.

The Sixers have maintained an interest in the forward for several weeks, and when Marshall was bought of his contract with Oklahoma City last week, Philadelphia pounced.

Agent Andy Miller confirmed that Marshall is scheduled to meet with the Sixers tomorrow. It is likely that he will undergo a physical examination and sign a contract within the next few days.

Another great move bringin in a nice veteran.

Horrible signing. Marshall cannot do anything right. He no longer has a shot, he can't go inside, he is not a good defender. At this point I really don't know what he can do besides being a veteran on the bench..

He don't need to do much, look at the 76ers. At SF and PF there pretty much set. This was a move to bring in a vet who can help the younger players. This isn't a good sign but it's not bad either.

he wont play, ever unless theres injuries.
he's there because A, he is from philly so fans will like him, B, he is a good mentor to young guys seems he used to be a pretty good defender and has hit big shots on occasion
