NBA Draft: Every Teams NBA Draft Needs
By Taylor Hunt
Philadelphia 76ers
Current Picks: 1,24,26
The Sixers process has finally paid off. They are the owner of the highly coveted number one pick. They will draft either Simmons or Ingram and are currently rebuilding. There have been many rumors surrounding Nerlens Noel and Jahlil Okafar though. they have 3 talented young centers on the roster and it wouldn’t come as a surprise if one of them is traded.
The Sixers’ roster is very congested. They have a lot of talented centers and not much talent at any of the other positions. They are likely still a couple of years away from playoff contention, but a player like Simmons or Ingram should help take pressure off the team.
Team Needs: SG, SF, PG, PF
Players available at 1: They have their pick at Simmons or Ingram.
Players available at 24 and 26: Taurean Prince, Tyler Ulis, Demetrius Jackson, and Ben Bentil
Next: New Orleans Pelicans
