Former Syracuse men's basketball guard Judah Mintz has found an NBA summer home with the Philadelphia 76ers.

Mintz was listed on the Sixers Summer League roster on Wednesday via the team's X account.

The 6'3" guard went undrafted in last week's NBA Draft, marking the fourth straight season that Syracuse has not had a player selected. Mintz played two seasons at Syracuse before forgoing his remaining two years of NCAA eligibility. In his sophomore campaign in 2023-24, he averaged 18.8 points per game, 4.4 assists and 2.1 steals. He was also second in the ACC in scoring, earning him a second-team All-ACC selection.

The Sixers will take part in the brief Salt Lake City Summer League from July 8-10. It will provide Orange fans with an opportunity to watch Mintz on their screens next week.

The Sixers kick things off against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday, July 8 at 7:00 p.m. on ESPN - where Mintz will coincidentally take on fellow Orange product Buddy Boeheim, who recently signed a Summer League deal with the Thunder. The 76ers then go on to face the Memphis Grizzlies on July 9 at 7:00 p.m. on ESPN and the Utah Jazz on July 10 at 9:00 p.m. on ESPN2.

The NBA's Las Vegas Summer League runs from July 12 through July 22.

Numerous other players with former SU ties are set to participate in the Summer League. Jesse Edwards (Minnesota Timberwolves), Boeheim (Oklahoma City Thunder), Joe Girard III (Toronto Raptors) and Quincy Guerrier (Toronto Raptors) are among them.
