Philadelphia 76ers need to play Trey Burke more often

There’s no doubt that the Philadelphia 76ers have issue, like with the availability of their starting five. However, the bench isn’t without blame, outside of Furkan Korkmaz, the rest of the regular rotational players off the bench have struggled to score. Besides Korkmaz, none of players who come off the bench regular even average seven points.

The Sixers bench as a whole is 24th in scoring on the season by averaging 31.8 points per game. The 76ers need more scoring off the bench and until players like James Ennis and Matisse Thybulle can hit more of their 3-pointers to increase their scoring output, head coach Brett Brown needs to rely on Trey Burke.
