26. Philadelphia 76ers – De’Anthony Melton, G, USC

The Philadelphia 76ers aren’t exactly sure what’s going to happen with Markelle Fultz moving forward, and I’m not either. Which is why I believe that one of their goals heading into the NBA Draft is addressing the position.

They don’t necessarily have to find his replacement, they just need to add depth. The would like to have options.

De’Anthony Melton isn’t a big-name that you associate with being a future star, but the potential is there for him to be a rotation player at the next level.
