Larry Drew II is rejoining the 76ers.

The team signed the point guard to a 10-day deal. The signing is insurance for Wednesday night's game against the Chicago Bulls at Wells Fargo Center. Drew will provide depth at point guard. Demetrius Jackson, whom the team signed to a two-way contract, is sidelined with a groin injury.

This is Drew's third go-round with the Sixers. The 27-year-old played in 12 regular-season games while on two 10-day contracts during the 2014-15 season and is determined to get back to the NBA. Drew was also a member of the Sixers 2017 summer-league team.
