Philadelphia 76ers Players Rankings: Building Chemistry
9. T.J. McConnell
March Stats: GP 14| MINS 15.9| FG% 39.7| 3P% 14.3| TRB 2.2| AST 2.0| STL 0.3| PF 0.3| TOV 1.1| PTS 4.8
Previous ranking: 8th
March had been a very uneven month for T.J. McConnell. He’s always been a very efficient player throughout his career, but the second half of March he struggled from the floor. After the Sixers game against the Sacramento Kings, McConnell’s struggle began. He shot over 40.0 percent in only two of the seven games after Philly’s matchup against the Kings. The Sixers need McConnell to break out of this slump before the playoffs begin.
8. Boban Marjanovic
March Stats: GP 9| MINS 10.8| FG% 55.8| 3P% 66.7| FT% 80.0| TRB 3.8| AST 0.9| BKL 0.2| PF 1.3| TOV 0.7| PTS 6.9
Previous ranking: 6th
After missing a few games in the beginning of March due to an knee injury that he sustained in February, Boban Marjanovic was able to come back and fulfill his role as the backup center. His defensive faults are known, but he did add a new wrinkle into his game. He has began to launch 3-pointers and making them. If Marjanovic can prove that he can hit 3-pointers on a regular basis, then he will become even more dangerous on the offensive end.
7. James Ennis
March Stats: GP 10| MINS 17.7| FG% 50.0| 3P% 33.3| FT% 70.6| TRB 4.8| AST 0.5| BLK 0.4| STL 0.2| PF 2.9| TOV 0.5| PTS 7.4
Previous ranking: 11th
After a rough start in the last player rankings, James Ennis is beginning to look like the player he can be for the Sixers. While his 3-point percentage isn’t quite where the Sixers need it to be, it has improved over time. He did miss a few games this past month to due to injury, but Milton proved to be more than capable to fill the void. If Ennis can get his 3-point percent up to his career average of 35.7 percent before the playoffs, then he can be a x-factor to Philly’s postseason success.
