8. Wilson Chandler

Playing on an expiring contract, Wilson Chandler should have a little extra incentive to show out this season.

Chandler is a versatile swingman who can get into occasional grooves offensively. He is a dependable shooter and strong finisher at the rim, as he put on display last year averaging 10.0 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game for the Denver Nuggets.

With a 6’8″, 225-pound frame, he will likely make more of an impact on defense for the Sixers. He is an athletic veteran who can virtually guard any position no matter where he is on the floor.

Chandler gives the team a strong defensive cushion off the bench, something that was often nonexistent last year.
