During December, one thing had become abundantly clear regarding the structure of the Philadelphia 76ers roster. The team lost what little depth it had when the Jimmy Butler trade went down. The following rankings more than reflect the lack of depth the team has.
December Stats: None
Previous ranking: 16th
The rapid decline of Amir Johnson, has all but assured that the Sixers need the extra depth that Justin Patton could provide once he’s healthy. While there weren’t anything outside of rumors surrounding the big man this past December, hopefully Patton is closer to returning than further at this point.
