28. Philadelphia 76ers – Brandon Boston Jr., G, Kentucky

The Philadelphia 76ers didn’t exactly address the backcourt position at the NBA Trade Deadline or really at all this season, but that could change heading into this offseason and, specifically, at the 2021 NBA Draft.

One potential fit late in the first round is Brandon Boston Jr., who was somewhat of a disappointment during his time at Kentucky (considering the amount of hype that surrounded him coming out of high school).

Boston is coming off a sophomore season in which he averaged 12 points and five rebounds on just 36 percent shooting from the field. Boston will need to develop and take a big leap to make an immediate impact during his rookie season, however.
