2016 NBA Draft: Editor’s Mock Draft

Brandon Ingram from Duke University.

The Sixers are in a major rebuilding process and any player they draft will help make an impact immediately, but they should be smart about who they draft and think about which position they need most filled and can help them.

They are going to either pick between Ben Simmons and Brandon Ingram.

Ingram makes the most sense as he is better overall player than Simmons and can shoot the ball.

Simmons is a big man and the Sixers have plenty of them.

They need a shooter and playmaker, Ingram is the right choice.

If he doesn’t get drafted there he will most likely get drafted by the Lakers.

They are trusting the process of drafting a bunch of young players to develop them and hope in a few years they will be great.

This team has a lot of big men on their team, which they don’t need to draft anymore.

Let us not forget they have center Joel Embiid who hasn’t played a single game, but will play in the 2016 season.

Where they lack is in a constant shooter who is a lockdown defender.

This is where Brandon Ingram comes in and why he goes number 1 over Ben Simmons, because Simmons is a big man and they don’t need that.

Head coach Brett Brown has connections with Ben Simmons through his father and many think that is why he will go number 1 overall.

They also just said they will draft him, however if Brett Brown is a coach who is smart and wants to win games with his organization he would be smarter to draft Ingram not Simmons for the betterment of all 3 of them.

Ben Simmons would have more success with another team where he has a mentor and he can develop quickly.

If the organization is being truthful and draft him mark my words Ben Simmons will be a bust in the NBA unless he is traded somewhere else.

These are the top 2 draft picks right now.
