Trendon Watford has been putting up some spectacular performances for the Philadelphia 76ers in the early part of this season. If he continues to play at this current level throughout the year, he may very well be the kind of difference-maker that can truly raise the ceiling for this Sixers team.
When Watford initially signed with Philadelphia over the summer, it was on a two-year, $5.2 million deal. Nothing crazy, and probably not a lot of fans expected him to become a heavy-minutes rotation player that the team could truly rely on. Trendon has been able to reverse that narrative in just the first three weeks of the 2025-26 season.
