The Sixers didn't make a selection in Thursday night's NBA draft, which led me to send out the mildly snarky blank email "recap" of their selections.
But they did sign four undrafted players, including one in Ricky Council IV who many thought had a pretty good chance to hear his name called on draft night. So before we dive into slop season with the start of free agency later this week let's take a quick look at the four players the Sixers added to their program after the draft.
This is the part where I remind you that covering the draft isn't an all-year thing for me anymore. I say that in large part because in the past, when I did cover the draft for DraftExpress and USA Today, it used to annoy me to no end when people who ignored the draft for 11 months of they year would come in at the last second, read a few scouting reports, watch a few YouTube clips* and pretend to be authorities.
(* To be clear, that is not a shot at Spike, who has always been upfront that his rankings are based on YouTube. It's a shot at those who pretend otherwise.)
