The Philadelphia 76ers need shooting, and by golly, Isaiah Joe can shoot it.
The least surprising moment of draft night was when Isaiah Joe‘s name was called for the Philadelphia 76ers. A promise had long been rumored, and the Sixers’ need for shooters made the fit a little too obvious.
If anything, the only surprise was Joe’s availability at 49. Many expected the Sixers to select him 34th or 36th, but both picks were traded in the process of unloading Al Horford and Josh Richardson.
