Sam Hinkie said in his post-draft presser that part of the reason he was delayed in addressing the media was because he was putting the Sixers' summer league roster together.

Wyatt and Carter-Williams went at it in Madison Square Garden last December when Temple upset No. 3 Syracuse. Wyatt scored a game-high 33 points on 8-for-17 shooting and went a perfect 15-for-15 from the free-throw line. MCW, meanwhile, scored 13 points on 3-for-17 shooting and missed eight of his 15 free throws.
