Despite a glaring need at center, the Philadelphia 76ers should prioritize perimeter depth in the upcoming 2019 NBA Draft. That means targeting wings at 24, where Arizona State’s Luguentz Dort presents an intriguing — albeit flawed — target.
Dort entered his freshman season as a rising star, gaining notoriety for his AAU play and performance with the Canadian National Team. It wasn’t until the season began, however, that Dort established himself as a first-round prospect.
An elite-level athlete blessed with NBA physicality, Dort should have little issue adjusting to the speed and power of the next level.
