Sixers To Select Third In The 2015 NBA Draft
By Ray Boyd
NEW YORK, N.Y. (CBS) -- The pick is in. Following an 18 win season in 2014-15, the Sixers will select 3rd overall in the 2015 NBA Draft.
The Sixers entered tonight's lottery in New York with the third highest odds to secure the top pick in the draft. The team also had the best case scenario of finishing with the first, sixth and eleventh picks.
The consensus top four players in the draft are Karl-Anthony Towns, Jahlil Okafor, D'Angelo Russell and Emmanuel Mudiay.
The Sixers will more than likely be walking away from the NBA Draft with one of those four names.
Sixers players reacted to the announcement as well and seemed pleased to be adding a top three talent to the group.
