Current Los Angeles Clippers center Spencer Hawes spent four glorious years with the Philadelphia 76ers before he was unceremoniously traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Earl Clark and Henry Sims.
Tonight in Philadelphia, the Sixers did the classy thing and welcomed him back with a heartfelt video tribute prior to their game against the visiting Clippers. We’re assuming there wasn’t a dry eye in the arena.
Hawes enjoyed a triumphant return to Wells fargo Center on Friday, scoring seven points and grabbing eight rebounds in the Clippers’ 119-98 win.
