76ers' Mo Bamba: Inks deal with Philadelphia
The 76ers signed Bamba to a one-year deal Wednesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Bamba will likely compete with Paul Reed and Dewayne Dedmon for the backup center job behind Joel Embiid in Philadelphia. While Bamba hasn't lived up to his draft status as the No. 6 pick in 2018, he can still provide quality rim protection and space the floor.

Mo Bamba: Parting ways with Lakers
The Lakers waived Bamba on Thursday, Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports reports.
Bamba will look for his third team in six seasons after spending the first four years of his career with Orlando before being traded to the Lakers midway through 2022-23. In nine appearances for Los Angeles, Bamba averaged 3.7 points and 4.6 rebounds in 9.8 minutes. While the 2018 No. 6 pick's career hasn't exactly panned out, teams could offer him a cheap contract in free agency to fill a backup center role.

Lakers' Mo Bamba: Available Monday
Bamba (ankle) is no longer listed on the Lakers' injury report, so he should be good to go for Game 4 against Denver on Monday.
After missing nine consecutive games due to injury, Bamba will be available for Monday's must-win game versus the Nuggets. Despite looking on track to play, it remains to be seen whether the big man will make his way into the rotation, especially considering his limited play over the last month and the magnitude of this game. Bamba will likely serve as a rotational piece to match up with Nikola Jokic if he does see time.

Lakers' Mo Bamba: Expected to be available for Game 4
Head coach Darvin Ham said Sunday that Bamba (ankle) is expected to be available for Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals against the Nuggets on Monday, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.
Bamba has missed nine consecutive playoff contests due to left ankle soreness, and while it appears he'll be available for the must-win Game 4, it remains unclear how involved the big man will be in the postseason rotation. He didn't see any action in the first five matchups of the opening-round series versus Memphis but tallied three rebounds, one assist and one block in nine minutes during garbage time of Game 6. Bamba figures to be another body to throw at Nikola Jokic, but the two-time MVP has had the right answer to every adjustment made against him this postseason.

Lakers' Mo Bamba: May be cleared as soon as Game 4
Bamba (ankle) is expected to be able to return to action as soon as Game 4 or Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals versus the Nuggets, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
After missing nine consecutive games with left ankle soreness, Bamba is nearing a return to the hardwood and could see action in Game 4 on Monday. The big man's absence has been felt throughout the series' first two games, as the Lakers have struggled to deal with Nikola Jokic on the interior and find themselves down 0-2. However, with the Lakers currently running an eight-man rotation, it's unclear how large of a role, if any, Bamba will play once available.
