Wilson became a free agent Wednesday after his 10-day contract with the 76ers expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Philadelphia will have the option of retaining Wilson on a second 10-day contract, but the club may prefer to fill its open roster spot with a backcourt or wing player after getting Joel Embiid (knee) back from an extended absence in Tuesday's 109-105 win over the Thunder. Wilson made two appearances over the course of his 10-day deal, tallying 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 16 total minutes.

Wilson recorded 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 14 minutes during Monday's 108-96 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson's recent signing wasn't expected to have a huge effect on the roster, but the journeyman center saw 14 minutes after Mo Bamba and the rest of the interior failed to produce throughout the game. Wilson has played excellent ball recently in the G League, and the Sixers need support inside as they limp to the playoffs without Joel Embiid (knee).

Wilson signed a contract with the Magic on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson was traded from the Oklahoma City Blue to the Lakeland Magic in the G League last year but didn't suit up for his new team due to a hand issue. It wouldn't be surprising to see him back in the G League to begin the 2023-24 season.

Wilson was acquired by the Lakeland Magic from the Oklahoma City Blue back in February, but the 6-foot-10 forward ultimately never suited up for his new team due to a season-ending hand injury. Wilson now concludes the year with averages of 16.0 points, 6.8 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game across 23 appearances with the Blue.

Wilson finished with 28 points (12-22 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 11 rebounds assists three assists and two blocks in 35 minutes during Friday's 118-116 loss to the Mexico City Capitanes.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson was able to have his way offensively against the Capitanes, finishing as the leading scorer while also hauling in a team-high 11 rebounds. However, he struggled from the free throw line which played a role in the Blue losing a close one at home.
