The 76ers will sign swingman James Nunnally to a second 10-day contract, a league source said.

Nunnally traveled with the Sixers Wednesday from San Antonio to Houston, where they’ll play the Rockets Thursday night. His initial 10-day deal is set to expire Wednesday night at midnight.

Nunnally's second 10-day contract likely will not be announced by the team until Thursday.

The 23-year-old Nunnally has made five appearances for an average of 12.2 minutes per game since signing with the Sixers earlier this month out of the D-League. He’s shooting 25 percent overall and averaging 2.2 points and 1.0 rebounds off the bench.

By the time his second 10-day deal expires, the Sixers will have to decide whether to re-up Nunnally through the remainder of the regular season (what equates to their final five games), or let him walk.
