Bryan Colangelo poised to wheel and deal as new 76ers GM

There is little that Bryan Colangelo likes more than a stiff basketball challenge and the wherewithal to make things happen in a hurry so it would appear the former Toronto Raptors president has landed what he might see as a dream job.

Armed with all kinds of assets and few immediate expectations, this could turn into one of the wildest summers in Philadelphia 76ers history now that Colangelo is poised to take over as the team’s general manager following the resignation of Sam Hinkie.

He will have up to four first-round picks in this coming draft, the financial advantage of an exploding salary cap and a team that needs immediate help.
