With the NBA draft right around the corner, now is the time to look at some past drafts and see what the Philadelphia 76ers have done in their history. The Sixers have selected some big-time players in the past who have become an important part of the fabric of the franchise’s history.

This next edition stays in 2015 as the Sixers continued to build a roster and find pieces in the midst of their rebuild. After selecting Jahlil Okafor with the No. 3 pick in this draft, they selected another big in Round 2 with the pick of Richaun Holmes with the No. 37 overall pick.

Holmes spent three years in Philadelphia averaging 7.4 points and 4.2 rebounds serving as the backup big man to Okafor and Joel Embiid during his time. The Sixers then sent him to the Phoenix Suns in the 2018 offseason.

Overall, Holmes is still in the league as he just finished up his 10th season while playing for the Washington Wizards. Along with the Sixers, Suns, and Wizards, Holmes has also played for the Sacramento Kings and the Dallas Mavericks with career averages of 8.5 points and 5.3 rebounds.
