The Philadelphia 76ers are having quite a renaissance. After years of serving as the doormat of the other 29 teams in the league and wallowing at the bottom of the standings, the Sixers are finally trending towards the right direction, thanks in large part to the fruits of their shameless tanking over the past few seasons.
Among those fruits are Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons, two of the best young players in the NBA today. They are the reasons why the Sixers tanked season after season. And now that Philly is seemingly on the rise, a part of the team’s recent horrid past wants back in.
In a recent post on Twitter, former Sixers shooting guard Wroten expressed his desire to be with Philadelphia again.

Wroten was a fixture on the Sixers team during the years in which the team manufactured losses on an almost daily basis. Wroten played for Philadelphia from the 2013-14 season to 2015-16, and over that span, he saw the team lose 199 total games. Since being cut by the Sixers in 2015, Wroten has played for the Memphis Grizzlies and spent time in the G-League.
Will Wroten ever get his wish? The Sixers look set at the two-guard position with JJ Redick as the starter, but fans would probably get a kick if they see Wroten back with the team. After all, wasn’t the Washington product the one who coined or at least initiated the use of the “Trust the Process” slogan?
