Sixers' guard choice may be Lawson or Maynor

Posted Jun 23, 2009
Right now, the 76ers have no point guard. What they do have, and what could change that status, is the 17th pick in Thursday's guard-heavy NBA draft. Will they pick one? Will they select a true point guard, a guy who's spent at least a few years in college not just scoring for a team, but running one? If they do, keep an eye on North Carolina's Ty Lawson and Virginia Commonwealth's Eric Maynor. (Philadelphia Inquirer)
