NBA 2K18: 9 Best Teams You Should Play First
4. Philadelphia 76'ers
The Philadelphia 76’ers have been left cursing their luck over the last few years. Armed with a top three pick in the NBA draft for the last four years, injuries have robbed the 76’ers of any success they might have expected.
Last season saw rookie Ben Simmons miss the entire season with injury, while previously Joel Embiid had missed almost two full seasons with recurring problems. 2016 pick Jahlil Okafor has not paid off as expected, while Nerlens Noel has now been moved on.
However, things look to be getting rosier for the Sixers. Embiid appears over his injuries and showed last season how effective he can be, while Simmons is finally ready for action. Philly traded up for the number one pick this year, acquiring the exceptional talent of guard Markelle Fultz in a move which should give them all the tools needed for success.
Add to this the additions of experienced duo Amir Johnson and JJ Reddick, plus the emergence of Dario Saric, and the Sixers suddenly look like they could be one of the best and most exciting teams to get your hands on in 2K18.
