PHI: Guard depth remains an issue for Sixers after the James Harden trade
Andy Quach, Philly Sports Network
All four of the wings that the Sixers acquired from L.A. could end up being important rotation pieces for them down the stretch. Suddenly, a team that had an atrocious wing rotation has found themselves overflowing with depth at that position.
But, when one position is overly deep on a roster, that usually means another position is lacking. In the Sixers’ case, not getting back a ballhandler in return for the Beard has left Philadelphia short on guards and playmakers.
