Inks pact overseas Korkmaz signed an overseas contract with AS Monaco in France on Sunday, Evan Sidery of Forbes.com reports.

Impact Korkmaz was traded from the 76ers to the Pacers last season, where he was immediately released by the club. Now, the 27-year-old will head to Monaco in the EuroLeague. Korkmaz spent seven years with the 76ers, during which he averaged 5.7 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 14.3 minutes per game.

Waived by Indiana The Pacers will waive Korkmaz on Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Korkmaz will be free to sign with a team of his choosing once he clears waivers, and perhaps he'll be able to land a minimum-level deal as an end-of-the-bench kind of guy. However, we wouldn't anticipate him having any fantasy value to close out the season.

Shipped to Indiana The 76ers are trading Korkmaz, Marcus Morris (foot) and three second-round picks to the Pacers in exchange for Buddy Hield on Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Korkmaz is likely included in this trade package to match salary. The 26-year-old is averaging just 2.5 points in 8.6 minutes across 35 appearances this season. Korkmaz is unlikely to be a significant factor in Indiana's rotation.

Logs season-high 19 points Korkmaz chipped in 19 points (6-8 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds and three assists in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 119-107 loss to Golden State.

Impact Korkmaz got hot from deep, drilling five three-pointers in the loss. He as an unexpected beneficiary of Tyrese Maxey's (ankle) injury and Joel Embiid's (knee) early exit. Although the stat line was encouraging, we shouldn't expect similar results from Korkmaz unless the injury situation in Philly becomes systemic.

Impact Korkmaz played fewer than 10 minutes for the 19th consecutive game. The sample size thus far tells us everything we need to know about how underwhelming Korkmaz has been. Given he has scored a total of 36 points in almost two months, managers can safely avoid him in all formats.

76ers Veteran Shines Light on Furkan Korkmaz's Recent Contributions Furkan Korkmaz’s first two showings of the season have garnered the veteran some notable praise.

NOVEMBER 6, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Solid production as reserve Korkmaz totaled 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound and three steals over 22 minutes during Thursday's 114-99 victory over Toronto.

Impact Korkmaz reportedly requested to be included in the James Harden trade, but Philadelphia wanted to retain the sharpshooter. Korkmaz played just 9.5 minutes per game last year, his fewest since his rookie campaign, and he didn't see any playing time during the first two games of this season. However, he saw his first extended action Thursday and showed what he's capable of when given a chance. With the Harden saga in the rearview mirror, the 76ers may opt to give Korkmaz more minutes moving forward, but he could quickly fall back down the depth chart when Kenyon Martin, Marcus Morris and Nicolas Batum (personal) get acclimated with Philadelphia's system.

Impact Korkmaz is slated to make his 2023-24 preseason debut after missing the start of training camp due to a hamstring issue. The sharpshooter has handled a modest depth role in Philadelphia for six straight years and should garner a similar role this season.

Makes rare appearance Friday Korkmaz closed Friday's 121-82 win over Charlotte with zero points (0-2 FG) across seven minutes.

Impact Korkmaz saw playing time for the third time in the past 18 games, sliding into the rotation with his team in complete control. Despite a proven ability to hit the long ball, Korkmaz doesn't play enough to warrant any real fantasy attention, even in the deepest leagues.

MARCH 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Left off injury report Korkmaz (personal) isn't on the injury report for Thursday's game versus Memphis.

Impact Korkmaz missed Philadelphia's final two games before the All-Star break due to a personal matter. He wasn't initially listed on the injury report ahead of either of those contests, so his status still remains unclear. Either way, he's fallen out of the rotation of late, so his availability shouldn't have any impact on the rotation moving forward.

Ruled out Wednesday Korkmaz (personal) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.

Impact Korkmaz will miss his second straight game while he tends to a personal matter, but he hasn't been included in the 76ers' rotation of late anyway, so his absence won't affect how head coach Doc Rivers distributes the minutes among his wing players.

FEBRUARY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not listed on injury report Korkmaz (personal) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game against Cleveland.

Impact Korkmaz wasn't listed on the injury report before missing Monday's win over Houston due to personal reasons, so a similar situation could happen again Wednesday. However, for now, it appears like the sharpshooter will be available, though he's fallen out of the rotation of late and shouldn't garner a significant role even if he suits up.
