Did Philadelphia 76ers Give Up On Jerami Grant Too Quickly?

Not so long ago, small forward Jerami Grant was one of the faces of the Philadelphia 76ers future. In fact, he was one of the players who benefited mightily from the madcap antics of former president and general manager Sam Hinkie.

And so, as the story goes, Jerami Grant was selected in the 2014 NBA Draft at 39. On top of that, he is the nephew of four time NBA Champion Horace Grant. While he was never the star leader of the team, Jerami Grant was nevertheless a pivotal role player for the team. Jerami Grant shouldered the play which proved to the Philadelphia 76ers and to the NBA that second round players could crack the lineup in the NBA.
