Philadelphia 76ers: 3 free agent options at center

There’s little doubt that Joel Embiid was the one of the most dominating center and overall players in the NBA this past season. He put up MVP numbers averaging 27.5 points, 13.6 rebounds and 1.9 blocks. Yet the Philadelphia 76ers failed to give him a quality backup last season and that’s something they can’t afford to do this upcoming season.

The backup center position was a revolving door for the Sixers this season. Amir Johnson was the incumbent from the previous season, but he proved that father time caught up with him and was unable to defend at the high level that he use too.
