Furkan Korkmaz should remain in Europe next season

Keith Pompey says another season in Turkey is the best bet for 76ers draft pick Furkan Korkmaz.

Keith Pompey says another season in Turkey is the best bet for 76ers draft pick Furkan Korkmaz. The 19-year-old shooting guard could use it to add bulk to his 6-foot-8, 198-pound frame. He could also work on becoming a well-rounded player. The Sixers selected Korkmaz 26th overall in the 2016 draft. He couldn't afford the $2 million buyout from his contract with Anadolu Efes.
