Philadelphia 76ers:
#1. Ben Simmons
#24. Timothe Luwawu
#26. Furkan Korkmaz
Grade: A
Obviously getting Simmons is a huge get for the franchise. He's a difference maker IMO, something the Sixers haven't been able to draft(Maybe a healthy Embiid is). I really also like what they did with the two late first rounders. The Sixers are in dire need of wing players. If one of these guys pans out it'll be worth it. Luwawu may come over this year, I actually hope he does. Korkmaz could use another couple years overseas, which is fine with me. All in all a very solid draft for the Sixers IMO. We didn't get the PG of the future, but with Simmons' capability as a point forward, that position isn't quite as important, although we do need an upgrade over Ish Smith at some point.
