Sixers draft SG Khyri Thomas 38th overall, trade to Pistons

By Josh Liddick, Sports Talk Philly editor 

The Philadelphia 76ers decided to select Creighton shooting guard Khyri Thomas their No. 38 overall pick, but according to Yahoo! Sports' Shams Charania, the team will ship him to the Detroit Pistons. The Pistons, according to David Aldridge, turned around and sent two future second-round picks for Thomas.

Trading the 38th overall pick comes right before the 39th pick, which the Sixers drafted Isaac Bonga for the Los Angeles Lakers after trading the selection on Wednesday night.

The Sixers are now down to two more picks at Nos. 56 and 60. It's still up in the air whether the team plans on trading those picks as well or selecting another player.
