Even if Fultz develops into that player down the road, we need someone now to seriously contend. Otherwise, this is just another season of growth and 2nd-round exit.
Covington + Bayless + MIA 1st for Butler
Simmons(24)/Fultz(24)
Redick(26)/Butler(10)/Shamet(12)
Butler(24)/Chandler(24)
Saric(28)/Muscala(10)/Simmons(10)

OR
Fultz + Chandler + Bayless + CHI/SAC 2nd for Butler + Teague
Simmons(24)/Teague(24)
Redick(24)/Butler(12)/Shamet(12)
Butler(20)/Covington(28)
Saric(28)/Muscala(10)/Simmons(10)
Embiid(32)/Amir(16)
Ultimately, that's exactly what this season is. It's just a matter of whose growth the focus should be on.
Let's focus on continuing to develop those players who are also ready to contribute now, and add another top 15 player to the mix.
