With the New York Knicks blitzing Tyrese Maxey late in the game, Joel Embiid made two important short-roll passes to VJ Edgecombe to help the Sixers secure a season-opening win:

DMX Model All-Americans @thebigwafe's model has predicted the meteoric rise of Yaxel Lendeborg, Tyler Tanner, Jaime Jaquez, and many other notable draft picks in past years. Who are the best draft prospects not currently on consensus boards? Read below! 👇

The best defenders in the world find ways to eliminate multiple looks at the rim over the course of a single possession. Last night, Embiid rejected Drummond thrice (!) after deterring a Knicks driver from a rim/SMR shot. We're so back!
Embiid looked really awesome defensively. Getting up to level vs Brunson, walling up diff Knicks drivers, + tons of second efforts and hip flips to recover atr. Very very encouraging performance

More pristine Biid defensive tape. He's weaponizing his monstrous standing reach thanks to recaptured short-space movement skills. Already much more confident in this Sixers defense.

VJ being in the dunker is cool, he’s also the only one who can potentially salvage offensive rebounds for this team, need him to crash more consistently

6 Maxey stocks & almost a .5 3pr + teed up Biid & co for 4 on 3s down the stretch. Gotta love it.

For @thehwcollectlve: Power Guard Apprentice Davion Hill is the initial feature of 'Below The Rim', showcasing the craft and artistry of the game's vertically-limited maestro Hill's medium? Transition dominance, in volume & efficiency, usually reserved for high-flyers.

Maxey-DMelt-Tobi-Embiid was the most effective 4-man unit of the Maxey-Embiid era. Complementing their two stars with a low-mistake, functionally large wing and a versatile, utility guard (s/o @slipthescreen) is an especially repeatable team-building formula for the 26-27 Sixers!

Happy NBA RS Day! To celebrate, I refurbished 3 of my unreleased pre-draft player profiles and dropped them on my blog, explaining my view on each player entering draft night. Words on Boozer’s dominance, Hannes’ underrated passing, and Swain’s overvalued creation. Links 🧵 ⬇️
