Best Fit: Philadelphia 76ers
It was all smiles for the Philadelphia 76ers during the regular season, securing the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference.
Some felt like this was the year that the 76ers could advance to the NBA Finals with their All-Star duo of Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons. However, their smiles dissipated in the postseason, in large part due to the poor offensive production from Simmons.
With the 76ers now welcoming trade offers for Simmons, they need to acquire a guard that can space the floor alongside Embiid.
CJ McCollum is more than capable of shooting from beyond the arc and he can score in a multitude of ways.
