Philadelphia 76ers: The continuous mixed bag of Furkan Korkmaz

We have talked about the duality of Furkan Korkmaz‘s production before on this very site. He’s a strange player — one few expected to join the Philadelphia 76ers for another season, and one who’s now locked into the regular rotation despite a multi-season slump to start his career.

Korkmaz is Brett Brown’s favorite bomber — a slinky 6-foot-7 wing who can hit 3s, finish with touch, and pump-fake unsuspecting defenders into oblivion. He’s an intriguing talent, made all the more intriguing by his on-paper necessity to Philadelphia.

The Sixers are a team short on shooters.
