NBA Draft rumors: Sixers trading down for Dennis Smith Jr.?

With one week to go until the 2017 NBA Draft, the entire climate of the board will shift based on what the Sixers do with the No. 3 overall selection.

With names like Josh Jackson, Malik Monk, Jayson Tatum and De'Aaron Fox all in play, the Sixers could have options. If the Los Angeles Lakers pass on Lonzo Ball--possibly in favor of Jackson--an intriguing name could be staring back at Sixers executive Bryan Colangelo.

We can now add another name to the list--with the caveat of a possible trade down to make it more palatable for Philadelphia: North Carolina State point guard Dennis Smith Jr.
