Updated · 2026–27 season

Justin Edwards is on the books for $2,411,090 in 2026–27, the 13th largest cap hit on the Philadelphia 76ers roster and 1.2% of the team's $207.2M payroll.

That ranks 402nd among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 1.5% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 2 seasons left on it, running through 2027-28, worth $5,027,844 in guaranteed money.

The money climbs as it goes: $2,411,090 in the first year up to $2,616,754 in the last, a 9% rise across the deal.

Not every year is locked in: 2027-28 team option.

The option year belongs to the team, which makes that season a decision point rather than a commitment: it can be picked up cheaply or declined outright.

At 22, he is still inside the cheap early-career window; this deal runs through his age-23 season, before the expensive years start.

He sits in the bottom third of the roster by salary, the part of the payroll teams use to fill out the depth chart without moving the cap needle.

He is one of 14 players on the Philadelphia 76ers' books for 2026–27, whose 2026–27 salaries add up to $207,186,472.

Philadelphia 76ers sit at $207.2M in payroll and are currently classified Tax Payer, with +$1.8M of room below the first apron.
