JULY 2: Champagnie’s contract is official, the team announced in an email.
JUNE 24: St. John’s swingman Julian Champagnie is signing a two-way deal with the Sixers, a source tells Kyle Neubeck of PhillyVoice.com (Twitter link).
In 31 games (34.2 MPG) as a junior for the Red Storm last season, Champagnie averaged an impressive 19.2 PPG, 6.6 RPG, 2.0 APG, 2.0 SPG and 1.1 BPG. His shooting numbers were less impressive, as his .414/.337/.781 slash line was down from two seasons ago, when he shot .433/.380/.887.
Champagnie, the twin brother of Raptors two-way wing Justin Champagnie, was a All-Big East First Team selection each of the past two seasons.
That’s a name worth celebrating
Good pick up by the Sixers!!
