The Next Wave Of Euroleague

The Philadelphia 76ers are already set to be reinforced with Euroleague players. With shooting guard Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot on the roster, and Furkan Korkmaz maturing with Anadolu Efes of the Turkish Basketball Super League, the team is already set up for Euro-reinforcements.

But the team also holds the rights to 6-foot-3 Serbian point guard Vailije Micic.  And the team now has two first round and two second round draft picks in the 2017 NBA Draft.

Who might be on the radar for the Philadelphia 76ers next year?  Sixer Sense writer Owen Nelson did a great job in running down key prospects per position for the 2017 NBA draft, but his format was focusing on NBA positions.

From that group, several names show up with a European background.  Knowing we have a president who has no hesitation crossing international bondaries, who might we be looking at?

We have a few names to keep an eye on.
