The Philadelphia 76ers are not among the favorites to win the championship as currently constructed despite their rabid win-now design, but that does not mean that they are doomed in the future. While the franchise is spearheaded by established stars, it is likewise home to some of the brightest up-and-comers in the league led by All-Star guard Tyrese Maxey.
From Jared McCain, who was the runaway favorite to win Rookie of the Year last season before a knee injury sidelined him for the rest of his freshman campaign, to VJ Edgecombe, the third overall pick in this year’s draft, the 76ers have some nice pieces to potentially build around for the future.
