In what felt like an inevitability, the Sixers plan to convert Ricky Council IV’s two-way contract to a standard deal, a league source confirms to Liberty Ballers. Shams Charania of The Athletic first reported the deal, also adding the terms of four years and $7.4 million.

The North Carolina native went from three-star recruit to Wichita State to starring at Arkansas to going undrafted to landing a two-way spot with the Sixers. After flashing in several games with the team, Daryl Morey and company will have the young wing’s services for the foreseeable future.
