The Philadelphia 76ers have high hopes for VJ Edgecombe next season. The third overall pick in this year’s NBA Draft, the Baylor product is expected to have a major role one the team in the upcoming 2025-26 campaign, setting the stage for what could very well end up being a grand comeback for the franchise after a miserable finish last season.
Edgecombe showed glimpses of what he can bring to the table right off the bat in his pair of Summer League appearances, but fans could be in for so much more from the rookie. His calling card, even at this early juncture, is his three-level scoring ability thanks to his athleticism and skill, but recently, he made a huge promise that could change everything for the 76ers next season and beyond.
