The NBA will almost certainly push back the 2020 NBA Draft date, which creates a lot of ambiguity around the pre-draft process. Adam Silver still hasn’t decided how (or when) to finish the season, and the current trajectory of the COVID-19 pandemic could prevent a definitive decision on the issue for many weeks. Maybe even months.
With that in mind, the Philadelphia 76ers should use to spare time to evaluate different options in the 2020 NBA Draft — something they are undoubtedly doing. Elton Brand has doubled down on the Sixers’ desire for defense, but the main focus for the current roster should be an offensive punch — preferably in the form of a useful point guard.
