A Day'Ron in Philly

Philly Frills: 16/12/2022

The 76ers have had some really solid starter performances this season so far, and obviously went out of their way to replenish the veteran big man stockpile in the offseason, but the team has had a quiet achiever off the bench that has been a rock through the first 21 games of the year, in Day�Ron Sharpe.

Sharpe was working his trad eon the bench solidly, appearing in potential 6^th man of the year talks right from the start, but in the recent weeks we have seen some big performances throw him further into the spotlight, and with possibly starting injuries coming up on the horizon, we expect to see Sharpe thrust into a short term starting roll soon, too, which will further grow his profile.

In the NBA he started in the rotation for the Nets before they went in a different way, but he�s flashed his potential every time he�s got the chance. In a depleted team a couple of days ago he dropped 20/12 as a starter before again dropping out of the rotation. When will his time come?

In the NSL, he�s now put together averages of 5.5 points, 8.6 rebounds including 3 offensive rebounds, and 1.1 blocks per game off the bench in only 15.4 minutes per game. Naturally, when you have Steven Adams gobbling up a league top 4, 17.1 rebounds per game, and league top 2, 6 offensive rebounds per game, you�re going to be getting limited minutes, but he�s been huge in his court time. 5 times this year he�s hit double figure rebounds including 15, and 8 offensive in this past game against Golden State, and a massive 29 rebound haul, the 3^rd best individual rebounding game of the season, in only 25 minutes against Dallas.

Sharpe has been a rebounding machine in short and really anchors that bench unit. Knowing you have someone like Sharpe in your pocket for a rainy day, is an exciting prospect moving forward.
