Just a few days after hearing his name called at the 2025 NBA Draft, Johni Broome is already impressing in a Philadelphia 76ers jersey. Summer League began on Saturday night and Philadelphia went up against the Utah Jazz.

Summer league is the time for experimentation. The Sixers will be looking to see what they have in their young pieces so they will have them play plenty of different roles on the floor. For example, VJ Edgecombe will likely play a lot of point guard while Johni Broome will be playing a handful of positions.

While everybody has their eyes on Edgecombe, the No. 3 pick of this 2025 NBA draft, Broome is a player who the Sixers would like to count on to give them some good minutes at the big man spot. He had a decorated career at Auburn and now needs to translate those winning habits to the NBA level.
