Yesterday, the 76ers brought locals Wayne Ellington from UNC and Dionte Christmas from Temple to workout at the Philadelphia College of Orthopedic Medicine. How would these two guys fit in the Sixers' system? The 76ers are adament about getting a guard and needing a shooter, and both these young men are big guards who can shoot. Both Christmas and Ellington are proficient shooting and handling the ball, making them capable of filling in at the 2-guard spot or even the 3.
Despite the promising workouts, I don't think Wayne Ellington will be around by the time the Sixers draft at Madison Square Garden less than two weeks from now. With Ellington's deadly 3-point shot and outside versatility, I believe some team will take a shot at him before the Sixers get to pick. Christmas, although a great prospect, is probably not mid-first round material and the Sixers only have their one first round pick (17th) and no second round picks. Will the Sixers make a bold move and pick up a second round pick or another first round pick? Haha. What am I thinking? This is the Sixers I'm talking about...
