Oh better than a top 10 pg

We forget how solid of a prospect Ben was. If he had a cold mentality he could be a top 3 PG. He could bully smaller guards while locking down their best player. He’s 6’10 and stronger than some small forwards! Behind Luka and Steph, he could be as good as Dame or Ja imo. And his court vision? chefs kiss

Realistically tho, I doubt that’ll happen. Top 10 is more realistic and achievable

Sixers fans will get laughed at if this ever happens (even though we all believed harder and longer than anyone thought we should have), and I still have complicated and angry feelings toward Ben for his mentality - but when he showed his flashes, and he still does sometimes (which is so endlessly frustrating), he had (has?) genuinely limitless potential
