With the 2018 NBA Draft Lottery approaching, which wing players should Philadelphia 76ers fans familiarize themselves with?

The Philadelphia 76ers‘ primary focus heading into the offseason will be wing depth. That’s how the Celtics won in the conference semis, taking advantage of Philly’s limited two-way arsenal on the perimeter. Marco Belinelli and J.J. Redick got roasted as a result.

Free agency will be their best chance at finding an immediate upgrade, preferably of the elite kind. LeBron James, Paul George and Kawhi Leonard could all be available for different reasons. The Sixers will reportedly do everything they can to add one of them.

They’ll also have a chance to add legitimate contributors through the draft, though. Assuming the Lakers pick doesn’t rise to second or third, the Sixers will most likely be looking at the 10th overall pick. There are some quality wings floating around that range on draft boards.

With the lottery on the horizon, here are a handful of wings Sixers fans should keep in mind as the ping pong balls roll on Tuesday night.
