What about Larry? The contract of Larry Brown, the Sixers' executive vice president for basketball operations, expired Saturday. When asked whether Brown would be back, King sidestepped the issue, saying he was still wading through the draft and setting up summer-league plans.
Having someone with Brown's knowledge would be a benefit to any organization, but if the team starts slowly this season, speculation would begin about whether the Hall of Famer should replace coach Maurice Cheeks.
