The 76ers went into the offseason seeking to make a major splash. Instead, LeBron James signed with the Lakers, Paul George returned to the Thunder and Kawhi Leonard was dealt to the Raptors.
Instead, all of that cap space went to the likes of JJ Redick, Wilson Chandler, Amir Johnson and Mike Muscala (center, above).
Philly, in fact, might take a dip if it follows through with the plan of starting Markelle Fultz at point guard, shifting Ben Simmons to the wing and playing Redick off the bench. Simmons off the ball is an entirely different equation for a team that pushed to last season’s No. 3 seed.
