Key Question: What (if anything) can we take away from March Sadness?
The 76ers are losing, and losing well, as they try to keep their top-six protected pick, but there have still been several interesting on-court happenings. The Quentin Grimes explosion has made the biggest bang, but Justin Edwards’ late-season glow-up has been noisy, too.
The undrafted rookie is averaging more than 14 points per game on 46/37/76 percent shooting splits in March. He’s shown some tantalizing, albeit wildly inconsistent, flashes of defense, too:
At a strong 6-foot-6, Edwards has the potential to be a real two-way depth piece with some offensive juice. He won’t have nearly this much freedom next season, but an offseason to improve his weaknesses and burnish his strengths could make him a valuable contributor to winning far sooner than expected.
