Dario Saric


Another rookie from the 2014 NBA draft is finally ready to make his NBA debut after spending the past two seasons playing professionally in Turkey.

Saric has finally signed and agreed to play for the Philadelphia 76ers this season which is very exciting news. Now the questions start to flood in…Will he be an effective NBA player? Will he start for the Sixers? What position will he play?

While we cannot answer any of those questions just yet, what we do know about Dario is that he is a versatile forward that displays athleticism and the ability to knock it down from deep. He averaged 11.7 PPG and 5.8 rebounds while shooting 40% from deep. 

Once training camp begins, we will start to get a better picture of how coach Brown plans to utilize Dario in the Sixers rotation this season. We will also catch a glimpse of how NBA-ready he is and what type of chemistry he can build with Ben Simmons and the rest of the Sixers.
