When discussing who the Sixers might take with the third overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, the names in consideration have been limited to a select few. Assuming that Markelle Fultz and Lonzo Ball are selected with the first two picks, the conversation is centered around Jayson Tatum, Josh Jackson, Jonathan Isaac and (to a lesser extent) De’Aaron Fox. But there’s been no indication that the Sixers have honed in on any of those players, or are even interested in keeping the selection.
A trade down seems unlikely, but certainly not impossible given how the more natural fitting pieces of that class will most likely be off the board.
