He had averages of 2.3 points and 1.3 rebounds per contest while shooting 41.5% from the field and 34.5% from three-point range.

Via ESPN’s Bobby Marks: “Beauchamp will have 31 days to be on the active roster.

The 76ers currently have 32 games to split between Barlow, Walker and Beauchamp.”

Beauchamp (who is 25) was the 24th pick in the 2022 NBA Draft by the Bucks.

Over part of three seasons, he has career averages of 4.1 points and 1.9 rebounds per contest while shooting 43.0% from the field and 35.4% from three-point range in 135 games.
