No, because as I just mentioned the Sixers drafted these guys KNOWING they were injured already, because of the value....how is this hard to understand? Hinkie took them BECAUSE of their position.

Noel was the consensus #1 pick in the 2013 draft going to the Cavs , then he tore his ACL towards the end of his college season and his stock dropped dramatically and he was drafted #6 overall. Anthony Bennett was taken #1 by the Cavs instead.

Embiid was the consensus #1 pick in the 2014 draft to the Cavs as well, and then he broke his foot right before the draft and he slipped to #3 (since the Bucks were taking Jabari Parker #2 regardless). Andrew Wiggins was taken #1 by the Cavs instead.

Long story short, it worked out well because the Sixers took the players that the Cavs passed up on (because of injuries) in both cases, and in both cases the Sixers got the better player LOL.


Simmons is different, because he was injured AFTER he was drafted which they obviously didn't plan for.


All I got from this is that sixers draft glass

Rising superstars you mean?

Yes, if missing a player for one year results in guys like Embiid and Simmons who will be running this league in a few years, then sure rofl.
