Patrick Beverley, the seasoned point guard for the Philadelphia 76ers, has commended the diligent work ethic displayed by his new teammate, 21-year-old guard Jaden Springer, as the 2023-24 season approaches.
“Two months, almost three months ago I showed up to UCLA, and he had been there. I think with that attitude and that discipline…putting it all in the team, putting it all in basketball, nothing but good stuff happens from there,” Beverley said about Springer, via PHLY Sixers.
Springer split last season between the Sixers and the G League while playing for the Delaware Blue Coats. In 24 games in the G League, Springer averaged 19 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.8 assists during 30.3 minutes of play per game.
The former first-round draft pick also appeared in 16 games for the 76ers, averaging 2.6 points in 5.6 minutes per game.
