Sixers predicted that he ends up in Jalen Brunson in the NBA design

With a selection protection for your choice in the first round, the disappointing year of the Philadelphia 76ers could end with sending a selection to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Fortunately, the Sixers took fifth place in the NBA lottery rating for them, which offers their front office a high chance of possibly having a high chance with a top five selection.

The order up is not carved in stone. The lottery determines the next month where everyone will move out. In a recent NBA Mock draft from 2025, which contained a random simulator, the Sixers almost hit the lottery by winning the two-cross-selection.

In this case, Jonathan Wassman from Bleater Report predicts that the Sixers could end with Rutgers star Dylan Harper, who landed a comparison with the New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson.

“While the Sixers with Tyrese Maxey and Jared McCain are in good condition, they could still be used for Dylan Harper, especially since he is 6,6” £ 215 and may be able to play a Wing creator roll. Between Maxey, McCain and Harper, this line -up could exercise tons of ball handling and shooting pressure on defense. “Via BR

According to the tankathon, the Sixers only have a 10 percent chance of winning the lottery. You have a shot of 42 percent to get a top four election.

At Rutgers, Harper performed for his newcomer campaign in 29 games. The young star produced 19 points per game, while he shot 48 percent from the field and 33 percent of three.

Daryl Morey, President of Sixers, made a few things clear after the Sixers had completed their 2024-2025 season.

First, the executive stated that the Sixers regarded their best selection of the design as a “tool” for their duty scheme structure process, which does not exclude the idea of ​​trading with the selection. If you project a Brunson type, it would obviously be in your best interest to keep it when you consider that this is an all-star caliber comprise. Since the beginning of the Morey era, the Sixers have only exchanged their first dealer once a night.

In the past, recent prospects may not have been viewed as an impact player for the Sixers, but the front office seems open to to more reveal their strategy. After prioritizing aging experienced veterans towards younger players who have not been around too long, the Sixers seem to be more open to a youth movement, while they are still about Joel Embiid and Paul George.

Finally, the Sixers are not designed with the need for position needs. You have a lot of guards, but the best player on the board is a guard? Then the Sixers take a guard. The plan is to select the best available player and find out the rest later. Harper is widely considered the second best player in the design behind Cooper Flagg. If the Sixers No. 2 landed, Harper could certainly be the choice.
