2013/2014 was a weird time in history. Sharknado 2 came out, Manti Te’o had a fake girlfriend, and perhaps strangest of all: Michael Carter-Williams looked like an above-average NBA player. On a defining night in Sixers history, MCW was taken with the 11th overall pick in the draft after Jrue Holiday was shipped to the Pelicans for Nerlans Noel and a protected 1st round pick. While Noel spent the year recovering from a torn ACL, Carter-Williams looked to be a bright spot that they managed to land. While his career has taken a turn for the worst in recent years, MCW played beyond the level of what anyone could have imagined in his 2 years here in Philly.
