With the NCAA Tournament set to kick off, which teams should Philadelphia 76ers fans keep tabs on.

IT’S MARCH, BABY.

Whether you’re a college basketball fan or not, there’s always something special about March. From the close games to the thrilling Cinderella stories, there’s always something to watch and something to cheer for.

It’s quite possibly the most entertaining month of basketball every year.

This season should be no different, with plenty of enticing matchups in the first round. Whether it be high-end prospects or collegiate elites, there’s a lot to look forward to. Plus, that typically means there’s some level of NBA relevance in most of these games.

The Philadelphia 76ers — potentially for the final time in the Process era — will be picking in the lottery this summer, assuming the Lakers don’t a) fall off a cliff b) make the playoffs or c) somehow land the second or third pick.

On top of that, Philly will have its own pick (in the 20s) and four second rounders. There will be plenty of opportunities for them to add talent to the roster, and the tournament is the best possible stage to showcase that talent.

Here are teams that all Sixers fans should be watching as the madness unfolds.
