If he slides, LSU’s Tari Eason could be a steal for Sixers

The 2022 NBA Draft will be held on Thursday, June 23. Since the Nets decided to defer the pick owed to them as part of the James Harden trade, the Sixers will select 23rd overall. Ahead of the draft, we’ll look at several prospects that could fit the Sixers and be realistic possibilities at No. 23.

LSU’s Tari Eason is a talented wing that is arguably the best defender in this draft.

Eason has an impressive track record. He played under former NBA All-Star Brandon Roy for his first two years of high school before transferring to Federal Way High School where he played alongside Jaden McDaniels.
