The Philadelphia 76ers just endured several months of desperately clinging to their first-round pick. If the pick had landed outside of the top six, it would have gone to the Oklahoma City Thunder, so the 76ers spent the second half of last season tanking in an effort to keep it.

The Philadelphia 76ers got some luck in the 2025 NBA Draft Lottery, moving up two spots from their expected pick to land the No. 3 overall selection.

The NBA draft is still a little more than a month away and anything is possible up until the Sixers make the pick at three or make a deal to try and set themselves up to be competitive for 2025-26.
