In a recent NBA Mock Draft, the Philadelphia 76ers take on USC star, Isaiah Collier.
For the time being, the Sixers are doing their due diligence on this year’s draft and coming up with a potential selection if another team doesn’t have a desirable return for the 16th selection.“The draw to Collier is his shiftiness for creativity, physicality attacking and finishing and live-dribble passing skill. Teams that think his jump shot and decision-making should improve will see more upside than those worried about his low-volume three-point numbers and turnovers.
Prior to the 2023-2024 NCAA season, Collier was viewed as a potential top-five selection. As USC’s season played out, his position in the ranks consistently changed. The Sixers know well that there is value beyond that point. Just look at former Kentucky guard Tyrese Maxey, who is coming off of an All-Star season.
Even on a small sample size, though, hitting on half of your picks beyond the top slots leaves a good track record. The freshman guard out of USC is certainly a high-upside guard who could land a similar pathway as Maxey.
