The Philadelphia 76ers are looking to contend and need to stockpile cheap, useful players in the NBA Draft. That means drafting well in the late first and early second round, not compiling assets to move up. Unfortunately, it would require just that for Sekou Doumbouya to be an option.
After some midseason bumps, Doumbouya ended his overseas campaign strong before heading stateside and impressing in workouts. He has reestablished himself as 2019’s top international prospect as a result, offering intriguing upside in the lottery discussion.
Standing 6-foot-9, Doumbouya has the athleticism and base skill set to intrigue NBA teams — especially those looking for a home-run swing.
