Former Philadelphia 76ers players still in the NBA
Michael Carter-Williams
Michael Carter-Williams hit his ceiling as a player when he won Rookie of the Year with the Philadelphia 76ers. The 6-foot-6 guard has always lacked a legit outside shot, but Hinkie was still able to get good value when he traded Carter-Williams to the Bucks during his second season. While on the Sixers, Carter-Williams averaged 16.0 points, 6.2 rebounds and 6.7 assists.
After being traded to the Bucks, he’s also played for the Bulls, Hornets, Houston Rockets and is currently on the Magic. It appears that despite his lack of an outside shot, his ability to defend has found himself a home in Orlando as a backup.
Markelle Fultz
While on the subject of former 76ers point guards that struggle to shoot outside shots and is currently on the Magic, there’s also Markelle Fultz. He is certainly one of the most infamous top picks in Philly’s history. Due an injury, he was never able to live up to the hype that came with his draft selection.
Before the trade that sent him to Orlando happed, he averaged 7.7 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.7 assists with the Sixers. Hopefully for his sake, he can get past this injury and become a productive NBA player. For now he’s one of the top bust in 76erss draft history along with Okafor.
