Ah yes, the backup center position. A spot on the Philadelphia 76ers roster that has monumentally held the team back in recent years. Whether it was Greg Monroe starting a playoff game or Mike Scott having to act as a “small ball five”, it’s pretty safe to say the Sixers desperately need to find a long term solution to the position.
Considering the fact that Joel Embiid regularly misses 15-20 games a season due to load management and/or injuries, the backup center position is arguably just as important as a starting spot when it comes to the Sixers.
