Uniform number for new Sixers addition Dominick Barlow revealed
The Philadelphia 76ers were able to land a capable backup big man on a two-way deal in the form of Dominick Barlow as he begins a new chapter in his NBA career. After going undrafted, Barlow landed with the San Antonio Spurs for two seasons before playing for the Atlanta Hawks in the 2024-25 season.
Barlow enters Philadelphia with career averages of 4.2 points and 3.1 rebounds. He showed off an ability to rebound the basketball at a high rate in the handful of summer league games he played in Las Vegas for Philadelphia. One has to wonder if coach Nick Nurse and Co. will give him a look when the season begins in October.
In terms of his uniform number, Barlow will wear No. 25 for the Sixers. He wore No. 0 while with the Hawks, but of course, that number belongs to Tyrese Maxey in Philadelphia.
The Sixers will look to Barlow to give them some good minutes in the dog days of the season in January and February as they move forward in hoping Joel Embiid can be healthy for when the time matters the most in the postseason.
