Last season, a prevailing narrative and concern about the Philadelphia 76ers was their lack of dawg. A pair of blowout losses against the Miami Heat to end their season in the second round again only heightened that sentiment. The additions of P.J. Tucker, De’Anthony Melton and Danuel House seemingly quelled some of those worries this summer, but maybe, there was a dawg already on the roster waiting to be deployed in a grander role.
During the Turkey-Georgia EuroBasket game on Sunday, Sixers reserve guard Furkan Korkmaz grew rather feisty with a Georgian player and was ultimately ejected from the contest.
