2017 NBA Draft: Biggest Draft Yet for Philadelphia 76ers Franchise

For the last several drafts, Philadelphia 76ers fans have hoped that the ping-pong balls would fall the team’s way and get the Sixers the top overall draft pick.

The Sixers have had some good luck in the lottery, winning it last year and selecting Ben Simmons with the first overall pick. But they have also had some bad luck, like falling to the third pick in the 2015 NBA Draft and selecting Jahlil Okafor.

This year’s lottery is the biggest of them all, and the Sixers have plenty of chances to get high picks (they currentlyhave the fourth best odds at winning the lottery).
