Last week, the Miami Heat traded Dewayne Dedmon to the San Antonio Spurs.

The Spurs are in rebuilding mode, so he did not make sense for their roster and Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium reported (on February 9) that he would be waived.

Now, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the 33-year-old is headed to the Philadelphia 76ers.

Wojnarowski: "The 76ers are signing free agent center Dewayne Dedmon for the rest of the season, sources tell ESPN. The Sixers had been active in buyout market to find another center and land on Dedmon, who spent the past three seasons with the Miami Heat."

Dedmon played 11 games for the franchise during the 2014 season.

Right now, he is averaging 5.7 points and 3.6 rebounds per contest in 30 games (while shooting 49.6% from the field).
