The 76ers are not satisfied with the candidate for the Tanhua signing. Will they consider trading the Spurs second pick up?

According to HoopsHype reporter Michael Scotto, the Philadelphia 76ers have contacted the San Antonio Spurs. The two sides are discussing whether it is possible for the Sixers to get the second pick in this year's NBA Draft through a trade. Keith Pompey, a reporter from the Philadelphia Inquirer, also said that in addition to exchanging the 2nd and 3rd draws, the 76ers may also provide the Spurs with multiple future first-round picks as bargaining chips. There are also reports that there are major differences among the 76ers on whether to use the Tienhua lottery to choose Ace Bailey, a freshman star from Rutgers University. According to reports from TheSteinLine reporter Marc Stein, VJ Edgecombe, a big wing star from Baylor University, is another popular candidate for the 76ers in terms of the candidates for the third place. It seems that the 76ers have a very unclear choice in the choice of the Tanhua lottery. In this case, Scotto's statement may also be worthy of attention. Rather than swaying between Bailey and Edgecomb, it would be better to just trade upwards and use the second pick to choose Dylan Harper, a freshman backcourt star at Rutgers University, who is more mature and combat-ready.

Bailey was born in August 2006 and is 18 years old. According to data from the previous joint trial physical test, Bailey's bare feet are 201.9cm in height, wingspan is 214.6cm, standing height is 271.8cm, and weight is 92kg. In the NCAA game this season, Pele played a total of 30 games, averaging 33.4 minutes per game, averaging 17.6 points, 7.2 rebounds (2.1 frontcourt rebounds), 1.3 assists, 1 steal and 1.3 blocks, 2 turnovers and 2.8 fouls, shooting percentage of 46% (6.8/14.7), three-point shooting percentage of 34.6% (1.6/4.5), and free throw shooting percentage of 69.2% (2.5/3.6). Bailey was shortlisted for the Big Ten League All-A-Level 3 and the All-Rookie Team. Edgecombe from the Bahamas was born in July 2005 and is 19 years old. According to data from the previous joint trial physical test, Edgecombe's bare foot height is 193cm, his wingspan is 201.9cm, his standing height is 257.8cm, and his weight is 87.6kg. In the NCAA game this season, Edgecom has made a total of 33 appearances, averaging 32.8 minutes per game, with 15 points, 5.6 rebounds (2 frontcourt rebounds), 3.2 assists, 2.1 steals and 0.6 blocks, 1.9 turnovers and 2.5 fouls, shooting percentage of 43.6% (5/11.5), three-point shooting percentage of 34% (1.6/4.6), and free throw shooting percentage of 78.2% (3.4/4.3). Edgecombe was selected as the Big 12 Rookie, and was also successfully shortlisted for the Big 12 All-Team Second Team and the Big 12 All-Rookie Team this season.

Harper was born in March 2006 and is 19 years old. He is an all-round backcourt player with comprehensive capabilities and delicate skills. According to data from the previous joint trial physical test, Harper's bare feet are 194cm tall, weighs 96.71kg, wingspan is 209.6cm, and standing height is 259.1cm. In the NCAA game this season, Harper played 29 times for Rutgers, who is in his position, and averaged 32.7 minutes per game, averaged 19.4 points, 4.6 rebounds (0.8 frontcourt rebounds), 4 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.6 blocks, and 2.4 turnovers and 1.9 fouls. His shooting percentage was 48.4% (6.7/13.8), his three-point shooting percentage was 33.3% (1.7/5.2), and his free throw shooting percentage was 75% (4.3/5.8). Harper was shortlisted for the Big Ten League's All-A-Level Three Team and All-Rookie Team this season.

I don't know how the 76ers will make a choice in the next game. Will they choose to trade upward to win Harper, or will they find a way to use the Titanhua lottery in their hands to find a player that is more suitable for them among the two players with completely different styles, positions and characteristics, Pele and Edgecomb. Considering that the 76ers have a terrible record this season, the use of this valuable Tanhua lottery may also greatly affect the team's ranking and overall performance next season.
