今日七六人正式簽下效力於BC Žalgiris的Lonnie Walker IV，而記者Marc Stein則報導了其中交易的細節。Lonnie Walker IV原先 預計在歐洲待完整個賽季，但直到七六人在最後時刻打給了電話給他，才促成了今天的簽約。

記者Marc Stein在推特上分享了七六人與Lonnie Walker IV的簽約細節：

「Lonnie Walker IV最初與立陶宛BC Žalgiris簽訂的合約中包含一項2月18日（臺灣時間2月19日）的跳脫條款，以便他可以重返NBA。原本計劃在立陶宛待到夏天再尋找下一個NBA球隊的Walker，今天在最後時刻接到了費城的電話，要求他火速加盟。」

「由於Eric Gordon本月因手腕傷勢困擾，回歸時間尚未確定，七六人隊在今日加緊簽下Lonnie Walker IV，以確保在他的NBA買斷條款到期前完成簽約，不過據悉七六人整個賽季都在關注Walker在歐洲聯賽的表現。」

據先前的報導指出，Lonnie Walker IV的經紀人先是表示將會在立陶宛打完本賽季，將在下個賽季尋求重返NBA的機會。幾個小時過後，經紀人表示已經與七六人達成了一份兩年300萬美元的合約重返NBA賽事。

The original contract Lonnie Walker IV signed with BC Žalgiris contained a Feb. 18 escape clause to return to the NBA.

After planning to stay in Lithuania until the summer before finding his next NBA team, Walker got an 11th-hour call today from Philadelphia to hurry back. https://t.co/vohQI8ZDql

With Eric Gordon battling a wrist injury this month and his return TBD, Philadelphia pressed Tuesday to sign Lonnie Walker IV before his NBA buyout clause expired, league sources say.

But the Sixers, I’m told, have been tracking Walker all season as he played in the EuroLeague. https://t.co/R4IkcjBO7a
