Sixers need to use second-round picks wisely in next month’s NBA draft

With time being an amorphous concept in 2020, I feel it’s important to remind you that the NBA draft is just six weeks away on October 16. In addition to the 21st overall pick, the Sixers have four picks in the second round. While it’s likely some of that draft capital will be used as sweetener to try and move one or more of the team’s exorbitant contracts, it would also be a huge boon for a cap-strapped club to find a viable rotation contributor with one of those second-round picks. The 34th and 36th overall picks, in particular, represent a couple chances to find a legitimate NBA player.
