Philadelphia 76ers Player Rankings: Defense rules
15. Norvel Pelle
October Stats: None
Like Smith and Shayok, Norvel Pelle isn’t expected to see a lot of games in a 76ers uniform this season. However, he does have an easier path to minutes than the previous two players and that is because there will be times this season that Joel Embiid or even Al Horford will miss games either due to rest or injury. Pelle was on the active roster when Embiid missed a game against the Detroit Pistons.

14. Trey Burke
October Stats: None
Despite his ability to score the ball, Trey Burke failed to make his season debut during the month of October. Minus players on two-way contracts, only Burke and Smith were the only players that failed to record minutes during October.
13. Jonah Bolden
October Stats: GP 1| MINS 2.0| FG% 100.0| STL 1.0| PTS 2.0
Jonah Bolden made his season debut against the Minnesota Timberwolves and he didn’t play bad in limited action. The second year big man got this opportunity in part due to Joel Embiid being ejected from that game after he and Karl-Anthony Towns got into a fight. Most likely Bolden’s minutes will be limited like this for the season because of the Sixers quality depth.
