Player: Isaiah Joe

Height: 6'5"

Weight: 188

Pro Comparison: Landry Shamet

Scouting ReportA drop in shooting percentages hurt Isaiah Joe's stock, making him one of the best value picks of 2020. He still buried threes at a ridiculous rate with picturesque mechanics and fluidity. He's a future shooting specialist with sneaky shot creation, dribble jumpers and pick-and-roll play in his bag.

Joe joins a 76ers team that added another top SEC scorer in Kentucky's Tyrese Maxey in the first round.
