The middle portion of September may be the slowest NBA news cycle of the calendar year. Who might the Philadelphia 76ers consider kicking the tires on?

If you’re anything like me you’re dying for any content regarding the Philadelphia 76ers. Training camp, a new contract, more Ben Simmons jump shot videos, I’ll take anything that makes the season feel like it’s not 200 days away.

The Sixers have the pieces to contend for a championship, but that doesn’t come without questions. Shot creation and three-point shooting could possibly become nagging shortcomings. It wouldn’t hurt to bring in another body with potential to boost either area.

So in an effort to think outside the box, here are some names that could potentially interest the Sixers before and possibly during the season.

**Disclaimer: Most of the people I’ll list were good 10 years ago. I don’t expect any of them to be Sixers. This is solely for the purpose of spitballing semi-interesting names during the drought of exciting NBA news.
