The NBA draft is under a week away, and the Sixers have a major decision to make. Cliff is joined by ESPN’s Bobby Marks to discuss what the Sixers should do with the no. 3 overall pick in the 2025 NBA draft and in the offseason. Top prospect Ace Bailey hasn’t done any meetings with any teams in this draft. Why is that, and what is his camp’s strategy (3:36)? What should the Sixers do with Joel Embiid, as his extension is set to kick in this season (18:17)? Can the Sixers retain Guerschon Yabusele and Quentin Grimes without going over the second apron (27:57)? Plus, Bobby shares fun draft night stories and tells us what he would do with the no. 3 pick.
