Grading the Philadelphia 76ers’ poor 2019 NBA Draft performance
The Philadelphia 76ers squandered a prime opportunity to add cheap depth.
Disappointing. That’s the word that best describes the Philadelphia 76ers‘ performance in the 2019 NBA Draft. Elton Brand‘s first go-around as lead decision maker featured several decisions reminiscent of the collaborative. Of Bryan Colangelo‘s prior regime.
The Sixers turned the 24th, 33rd, 34th, 42nd and 54th picks into the 20th pick, 54th pick and future compensation. While the draft lacked high-end talent outside Zion Williamson, the second round was littered with appealing prospects. And the Sixers punted.
