Could Sixers find the next TJ McConnell in the second round?

Due to the lack of cap space that will be available this offseason, it is essential for the Sixers to find key role players in the draft. While it is unlikely they use all of them, the Sixers are equipped with 4 second-round picks in addition to the Thunder’s first-rounder in this year’s draft. Finding a player that could make an impact on the team with one of these second-rounders would help the team drastically. One player that could make a much larger impact than his draft slot would suggest would be Payton Pritchard.

Pritchard stands around 6’2 and plays with a toughness and grittiness that would fit with the Sixers and the city of Philadelphia right away.
