After a whirlwind few days, we finally got our answer to what the Philadelphia 76ers would do with the No. 23 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft.
Daryl Morey packaged the 23rd pick — which ended up being David Roddy — along with veteran Danny Green in a trade with the Memphis Grizzlies that sees the Sixers get back De’Anthony Melton.
The 24-year-old Melton put up 10.8 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.7 assists while averaging 22 minutes per game with the Grizzlies last season. Melton is due $8.25 million for next season, and $8 million in 2023-24, per Spotrac.
