## Resource

Labaron Philon, a sharp-shooting guard who slid to 22nd overall, gets a surprise lifeline from the Sixers—now stacked with Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid, Jaylen Brown, and LeBron James. Standing 6’3”, Philon thrives off the dribble, scores efficiently, and showed explosive growth in college. With a Summer League average of 18 points and 5 assists, he’s primed to ignite the second unit alongside Simons and Wade, turning Philly’s new-look roster into a true East contender.
