The 76ers waived Sallis on Tuesday, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
Sallis signed a two-way pact with Philadelphia in June but will now have to explore other opportunities after being waived. In a corresponding move, the Sixers have signed MarJon Beauchamp to a two-way deal. Sallis saw limited action with the parent club and was unable to impress in his eight outings with the G League's Delaware Blue Coats, during which he averaged 12.2 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game while shooting just 38.5 percent from the field and 18.8 percent from three-point range.

Rotowire
Sallis has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Pacers due to a right shoulder sprain.
Sallis has appeared in six games so far this season for the Sixers and is averaging 1.2 points in 4.2 minutes, so his absence shouldn't have much of an impact on the rotation.

76ers' Hunter Sallis: Inactive for Sunday

Sallis is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Lakers, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Sallis is on a two-way deal with the 76ers, meaning he can only spend a total of 42 games on the active roster, so Philly will hold him out Sunday night. Sallis' next chance to join the active roster will come Friday versus the Pacers.

76ers' Hunter Sallis: Plays 22 minutes from second unit
Rotowire
Sallis ended with eight points (2-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 22 minutes during Thursday's 99-84 preseason loss to the Knicks.
The undrafted rookie quickly netted a two-way contract with the 76ers following the NBA Draft this past June, so he has a place with the G League's Delaware Blue Coats waiting for him once the preseason comes to an end. With Jared McCain (thumb) out of commission, Sallis will likely play a key role in the Philadelphia second unit during exhibition play.
