The Philadelphia 76ers have two draft picks in the 2025 NBA Draft. Check out each pick in each round below. 2025 Philadelphia 76ers Draft Picks Round 1, Pick 3
Round 2, Pick 35 Who will the Philadelphia 76ers select in the NBA Draft?
In our latest 2025 NBA Mock Draft by John Fanta, the Philadelphia 76ers select VJ Edgecombe in the first round. Here's Fanta: VJ Edgecombe (G, Baylor)
"First and foremost, you have to think Daryl Morey is doing all he can to get a team baited into a trade to take Ace Bailey out of Rutgers at No. 3. Philadelphia is ready to win now with money locked up with Paul George, Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. That said, Edgecombe is a tough guard who averaged 15 PPG, six RPG and three APG in the Big 12 and was a capable defender. Yes, he's a bit undersized, but he plays the game the right way and would help Philadelphia now."
Jason McIntyre's latest mock also has Philly selecting VJ Edgecombe. Here's McIntyre:
"Do you trade this pick along with a high-priced veteran (Joel Embiid or Paul George), or keep and it see if you can make a run in the depleted East? Edgecombe could start his career as a defensive-minded slasher who shoots like Russell Westbrook did as a rookie (39/27). "

Thunder hilariously showed their youth in uncertainty with Champagne during NBA championship celebration
The Oklahoma City Thunder are one of the youngest teams to ever win an NBA championship with an average age of 25.33 years old across the roster. (Only the 1976-77 Portland Trail Blazers were younger, with an average age of 25.31 years.) That youth and lack of life experience became apparent during the Thunder's locker room celebration following their 103-91 win in Game 7 on Sunday night. Several observers noted that the revelry was rather short. Advertisement But to be fair, perhaps most of the players didn't have experience in celebrating with Champagne and popping a cork on a bottle. Cameras were there to record that uncertainty for fans to see on social media. Several players asked veteran Alex Caruso, who celebrated a championship victory with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020, how to properly shake up a bottle and get the cork to pop off. "AC, how we do this?" one Thunder player was overheard saying. "AC, teach me though!" said another. With their teammate's guidance, the Champagne finally started spraying in the champions' locker room. During postgame press availability, center Isaiah Hartenstein admitted that most of the players had no experience with Champagne bottles when asked why the locker room celebration seemed so short and with several unopened bottles of bubbly. "First of all, none of us knew how to do it," Hartenstein said. "We were just asking AC how to do it... it was kinda not really in sync because no one knew how to do it." Advertisement Responding to a follow-up question, Hartenstein explained that his previous championship experience came while he played in Lithuania and those players celebrated with tequila — "hard liquor, straight." Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams appeared on NBC News' "Morning News Now" on Monday morning and hosts Joe Fryer and Savannah Sellers asked about the Champagne celebration. Williams admitted that he had never tasted Champagne before Sunday night and did not like it. "I had never drank up until last night, so the Champagne was new," Williams said. "I didn't know what I was doing. It was cool, though. It tastes gross." "Not easy to do the Champagne showers," Holmgren added. "We weren't used to, you know, doing that celebration." Advertisement Holmgren provided another amusing example of inexperience with adult beverages during his postgame press conference, mispronouncing "Michelob" when touting Michelob Ultra providing goggles to shield their eyes from stinging during locker room festivities. He called the beer brand "mish-a-lobe" rather than "mick-a-lobe." Oops. Innocent mistake, and an endearing one. Hey, it happens to plenty of people. Though it wasn't alcohol-related, remember how Bryce Harper pronounced "meme" nearly 10 years ago during an interview with ESPN's Scott Van Pelt? With the Thunder being such a young team, the expectation is that the 2025 NBA championship will not be the last title that this group wins. Oklahoma City has the look of a burgeoning dynasty. As with any playoff situation, they gained valuable experience that can be utilized in future postseasons. We could see plenty of Champagne-popping pros next time around.

Brooklyn Nets jersey history No. 20 - Johnny Baum (1971-73)
The Brooklyn Nets have 52 jersey numbers worn by over 600 different players over the course of their history since the franchise was founded in 1967 as a charter member of the American Basketball Association (ABA), when the team was known as the "New Jersey Americans". Since then, that league has been absorbed by the NBA with the team that would later become the New York Nets and New Jersey Nets before settling on the name by which they are known today, bringing their rich player and jersey history with them to the league of today. To commemorate the players who played for the Nets over the decades wearing those 52 different jersey numbers, Nets Wire is covering the entire history of the franchise's jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. The 21st of those 52 different numbers is jersey No. 20, which has has had a total of 28 players wear the number in the history of the team.

The Philadelphia, Pennsylvania native would play the first two seasons of his pro career with the Bulls. He would sign with the ABA's Nets in 1971, his stay with New York spanning parts of two seasons. It came to an end when he was dealt to the (defunct) Memphis Tams in 1973, During his time suiting up for the Nets, Baum wore only jersey No. 20 and put up 6.7 points and 2.8 rebounds per game.
