Zach Edey, Kel’el Ware, and DaRon Holmes are just a few of the frontcourt options that should be available for the Sixers at pick No. 16. Can any of the 2024 NBA Draft prospects become a viable backup option behind Joel Embiid?
Devon Givens, Derek Bodner, and Kyle Neubeck discuss who Daryl Morey might lean toward among the big men, the team’s recent workout of Yves Missi, and what the Sixers should prioritize at backup center.

Remember when Brook Lopez came into the league? Maybe Edey can develop a viable 3pt shot over the next couple of years who knows his actual value until after the draft

Remember when they said maxey wasn’t a great 3 pt shooter when he was drafted 😂

To be fair if they had the March madness tournament that year he would have been a top 10 if not top 5 pick

Cut and resign Bball to a min deal. The basic stats you need... Rebounding, shot blocking, and a higher than 70% FT, and ideally playoff experience. I don't see Mo Wagner leaving Orlando. Kelly Olynyk for #16 fits most of that. I do like Drummond but he is unplayable in the 4th. I also think you could theoretically play Kelly next to Embiid. I would also look at Kevin Love on a 5-6M deal. So if you got both, you'd have 18M invested in the backup Center/PF position. Now if Carter is there at #16 maybe I love that worse of the 3 picks for Olynyk and my SRP this year.

This is the 16th pick. Just like the Sixers management you always overthink. Y'all did find value in Oubre either. You need guys that impact the game right away. A 7'4 star college player should be a no-brainer. We are a team that had Mo Bama and Paul Reed at Center. Why not take a chance on a player who is use to the spot light and has a star mentality.
