Ellington, Christmas to work out for Sixers
options
 

Temple's Dionte Christmas and North Carolina's Wayne Ellington, from Episcopal Academy, are among the next group of guard prospects that the 76ers will bring in for a pre-draft workout.

UCLA's Darren Collison (6-2 point guard), Miami's Jack McClinton (6-1 shooting guard) and LSU's Marcus Thornton (6-4 shooting guard) will also take part in the session tomorrow at the Sixers' practice site at PCOM.

The Sixers have the 17th pick in the first round of the June 25 draft.

More to come ...

    I like Ellington but i think we need a point guard, not a shooting guard. Especially with Kapono on the team now

    Kapono is a SF, not a SG- he's 6-7"/6-8"

    I know the Philly fans threw ice balls at Santa but the Sixers should still try to get Christmas.
