During their lengthy and controversial rebuild, the Sixers have been a fantasy goldmine for quick pick-ups of overlooked players. They might not field the best roster, but the Sixers have to give minutes to someone, and minutes often lead to value. Robert Covington might be more than just a quick add, though. His length and ability to hit the three ball have earned him some staying power in the turnstile Philadelphia roster. Last season, he was able to score 13.5 points to go along with 2.4 threes and 1.4 steals.
While Covington's .396 field-goal percentage was not pretty to look at, he can shoot over 80 percent from the line, so he's not completely inefficient like back-court teammate Tony Wroten. Covington looks to be one of the few mainstays in the Philadelphia roster, and his fantasy contributions in threes and steals might go overlooked due to the fact that he plays for the Sixers. The Sixers complete lack of depth at the guard and wing positions also hints that Covington might see a lot more minutes this year.
