All participants from the mini camp roster have made the official Summer League roster. Interesting names to watch will be Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot who is in his second year, and undrafted players Melo Trimble, Isaiah Briscoe, and Darryl Reynolds. Trmble was expected to be a first round pick in 2016 if he declared for the draft instead of waiting until 2017. Briscoe played for the powerhouse Kentucky program, and Darryl Reynolds won a National Championship with Villanova and is a Philadelphia native.
Sixers' 2017 draft picks Jonah Bolden and Markelle Fultz will also play. Bolden was a potential draft-and-stash prospect but it appears that he will be with the team this upcoming season. Markelle Fultz was the first overall pick, and is expected to be a huge part of the Sixers' future alongside Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons
The Summer Sixers will play their first game on July 5th.
