Philadelphia 76ers Trade Up For Matisse Thybulle
5 years agoThe Philadelphia 76ers have traded up with the Boston Celtics, selecting Washington forward Matisse Thybulle with the 20th pick in the 2019 NBA Draft. Thybulle might be the best defensive prospect in this year’s draft class, a guy capable of defending any position who put up elite block percentages and steal percentages for the Huskies last year. His shooting has oscillated between good and not so good over four college seasons, but if Thybulle is able to get back to knocking down the three consistently — he shot over 40 percent as a Sophomore — then he’ll be a huge piece for a Sixers team whose bench has a lot of holes. Thybulle has a path towards fantasy relevance right off the bat, though that will depend on how free agency goes for the Sixers. Keep an eye on him.
