The Philadelphia 76ers won’t know about the status of their pick until the lottery on Monday night, but should they keep their top 6 protected pick, there will be plenty of options they can look at with the selection.
The Sixers need an injection of youth on their veteran-laden roster. If they are to keep their pick, then they will be able to choose from a crop of talented players. Even if they choose somewhere in the 4-5-6 range, they can get an impact player.
