Sixers aim for depth by targeting NCAA champion in mock draft

The Philadelphia 76ers are reportedly considering Morez Johnson Jr. from the University of Michigan with their 22nd pick in the upcoming NBA Draft. Johnson, a key player in Michigan's recent National Championship run, averaged 13.1 points and 7.3 rebounds during his sophomore season. Draft analysts suggest the Sixers could focus on bolstering their frontcourt depth. This mock draft speculation arises as they look to address team needs stemming from their mid-season trade involving Jared McCain. The NBA Draft is scheduled for June 23, when the team's decision will become official.
