For the whole offseason, Philadelphia 76ers fans have mainly been talking about five names: Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid, Dario Saric, Jahlil Okafor, and Nerlens Noel. One name that needs a lot more recognition is Richaun Holmes. That’s something me and General Manager Bryan Colangelo agree on.
Richaun Holmes was another one of former General Manager Sam Hinkie’s second round gems. Holmes had a fantastic rookie season that went completely under the radar. In fact, he has shown so much in the past year that I think he has made me question if there’s any reason at all to keep Nerlens Noel.
