What does James Blackmon Jr offer the Sixers?

With only 60 selections made, there are bound to be talented players not drafted every year. Johnathan Motley, Melo Trimble, Devin Robinson and others who were stars for their collegiate team did not have their names called on draft night. Someone I am very familiar with as an Indiana University fanatic and found themselves in this situation was shooting guard James Blackmon Jr. Not long after the draft finished, Blackmon signed with the Philadelphia 76ers and gave himself a chance to find a niche on a team that needs his biggest (and really only) NBA skill, shooting.
