3. player. 93. <p>There are plenty of question marks surrounding Emmanuel Mudiay. The guy gave up his college experience in the States to play overseas in China where he had a confusing run with a pro league. His stats are good and he even led the team to some success. His 6-foot-5 frame is also attractive for a point guard and his play style reminds me of a young Penny Hardaway.</p> <p>The only fear I have about Mudiay is that he isn’t going to pan out in the NBA like he did overseas. It’s a completely different game in China. With a faster pace and better competition waiting for him in the NBA, time will tell if his game translates. But he does have a tremendous upside with all the physical tools necessary to be an NBA star.</p> <p>The 76ers are in need of a young point guard who can whip those two big men into a viable front court. It’s turning out that Nerlens Noel and Joel Embiid aren’t going to carry the 76ers out of the lower half of the standings. But maybe with the help of Mudiay something might happen.</p>. PG. China. Emmanuel Mudiay
