The Philadelphia 76ers have one of the most talented crop of guards in the league. Between All-Star guard Tyrese Maxey, two promising young backcourt weapons in rookie VJ Edgecombe and sophomore Jared McCain, and 25-year-old Quentin Grimes who remained with the team for this season, there is no doubt that production in the backcourt should be the least of their problems.
That daunting backcourt rotation will not be at full strength to begin the season, though. McCain will still be out for a month or so due to a thumb injury, but when he returns, the 76ers will have an advantage when it comes to guard play on a near-nightly basis.
