Hunter Sallis, a former standout at Gonzaga and Wake Forest, has signed a two-way contract with the Philadelphia 76ers following the 2025 NBA draft. The 6'5 guard, initially viewed as a promising prospect, improved his scoring significantly after transferring to Wake Forest, averaging 18 points per game while earning All-ACC First Team honors. However, a decline in his shooting percentage during his senior season raised concerns about his long-term viability as a shooter, leading to his undrafted status this year.

Despite a rocky start at Gonzaga, where he struggled for playing time amid a deep roster, Sallis showcased his potential at Wake Forest. His newfound opportunity with the 76ers places him alongside stars like Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, giving him a chance to prove himself on a rebuilding team.
