The Philadelphia 76ers are strategically entering free agency, prioritizing their own players, Quentin Grimes and Guerschon Yabusele. Grimes is expected to return, but Yabusele could attract interest, particularly from the San Antonio Spurs. The Sixers are actively seeking power forward options to bolster their bench, aiming for a significant contributor if Yabusele stays. With limited resources, they eye three viable candidates.

Marvin Bagley III, despite a challenging season with only 30 appearances split between the Washington Wizards and Memphis Grizzlies, presents an intriguing option. Known for his rebounding and lob threat capabilities, Bagley may fit well with the Sixers' athletic big man needs. Trey Lyles from the Sacramento Kings, who played a pivotal role in their recent playoff success with his shooting and rebounding, could also be a valuable addition for the Sixers' offense off the bench. Lastly, Chris Boucher, a seasoned contributor from the Toronto Raptors, brings versatility as a shooter and a high-energy defender, appealing to new coach Nick Nurse's rotation strategies.
