The Philadelphia 76ers reportedly already have an idea of which prospect they plan to select with the No. 3 pick in the 2025 NBA draft later this month.

Part of the reason why the NBA Draft is one of the most exciting events on the basketball calendar every year is the drama. The rumors and mock drafts in the weeks and months leading up to the main event create a suspenseful environment every time NBA commissioner Adam Silver takes the podium to announce the selection.

Although Rutgers wing Ace Bailey has widely been considered the likely No. 3 selection this year, Jeff Fischer of The Stein Line (via Substack) has heard rumblings that Philadelphia 76ers general manager Daryl Morey is leaning in a different direction with the pick.
