But in Philly, he can be a fast break partner for Maxey, he hit 41% on corner 3s last year, he’s a decent cutter, & has the size/athleticism to be a solid defender/rebounder.
I think Tobi is actually a good mentor to show him that buying into a role can really improve your value to the team & across the league.
He's maybe the most prototypical wing Sixers have had in the few years I've been watching; and that ability to take and make corner 3s, run the floor and attack the basket and play defense. Looking at these things on paper, he's a great fit next to Tyrese/Melton/Harris/Joel.
I'm not completely convinced they should start him and that he'll play smart on both sides.... But I hope him starting is their intention until he proves otherwise.
