Philadelphia 76ers: There might be hope for Furkan Korkmaz

In the preseason game against the Detroit Pistons, the Philadelphia 76ers were short handed. Both Ben Simmons and Al Horford didn’t play, so Matisse Thybulle and Furkan Korkmaz were called to start in their place. Thybulle has already been impressing all preseason (stats per RealGM) and did the same in this matchup, but the real surprise was the good play by Korkmaz.

The Turkish wing finished the contest with 10 points, four rebounds, one assist, one steal and one blocks, while converting 4-7 shots from the floor and 50.
