The Sixers finally received the shooter they so desperately needed, when Sam Hinkie acquired the right to swap first round picks in the draft with the Kings over the next two seasons while also picking up a conditional first in 2018.
That netted sweet-shooting, athletic guard Nik Stauskas. Sauce Castillo sounds excited about being in Philadelphia.
I'm excited to start a new chapter of my career in Philly! #TheMarathonContinues

He also had a huge fan in ‘Boogie’ Cousins, who took time out from his beef with George Karl, to wish Stauskas good luck.
