J. J. REDICK WILL BE SIXERS’ BEST 3-PT. SNIPER SINCE ANDREW TONEY!

Redick is one of the last of a dying breed: a traditional shooting guard who can get himself open by running around screens and catching and firing from anywhere on the floor.

He’s an offensive weapon who doesn’t need the ball in his hands to threaten the defense, an important skill for a team trying to develop three ball-dominant players.
