The Philadelphia 76ers continue their youth movement as on Monday they picked up the third-year options on the contracts of center Jason Smith and forward Thaddeus Young. Smith averaged in 76 games 4.5 PPG last season, but was expected to miss most, if not all of this season with a torn ACL; Young, the 12th overall pick in 2007, averaged 8.2 PPG and 4.2 RPG in 74 games last season.
