In June, Matisse Thybulle was the 15th-ranked prospect on our 2019 NBA Draft board. The Philadelphia 76ers traded up to select Thybulle at No. 20, adding another young, defense-first wing to a growing second unit.
Summer League was a series of flashes for Thybulle. He had special moments on defense, but looked the part of an unfinished product on offense. His 3-point shot was better than expected, but poor handles and a tendency to rush shots at the rim often prevailed.
Fast forward to the end of training camp and the Sixers’ annual Blue x White scrimmage.
