After going undrafted in the 2017 NBA Draft, James Blackmon Jr. was one of the first undrafted free agents to reach a deal on the night, signing with the Philadelphia 76ers.

Despite drafting Markelle Fultz, Jawun Evans and Sterling Brown, there could be a path for Blackmon to earn a roster spot. The Sixers’ backcourt last season of T.J. McConnell, Sergio Rodriguez, Jerryd Bayless, Gerald Henderson and Nik Stauskas leaves much to be desired for a contending team.

Still, the most likely path for Blackmon will be similar to Yogi Ferrell’s path where he can make an impact in the Summer League and earn a training camp invite.
