It’s been a few months since the Philadelphia 76ers selected VJ Edgecombe with the third pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, ending months of speculation regarding what they would do with the highly sought-after pick. During his one-season stint in the Lone Star State, with Baylor University, Edgecombe would average 15 points and 2.1 steals per game, making a name for himself as a threat on both ends of the court. This reputation would precede the 20-year-old when he would make his Sixers debut in the NBA Summer League, going on to average 21.5 points and eight rebounds per game, while also recording two steals and 1.5 blocks per night. It’s important to note that Edgecombe would only take to the court across both locations, Salt Lake City and Las Vegas, for a total of two times, as he was sidelined due to a right thumb contusion following his debut.
