The 76ers are expected to be about $11 million below the salary cap in July. While team president and general manager Ed Stefanski realizes re-signing restricted free agents Andre Iguodala and Lou Williams is important, as is bringing in a perimeter shooter to the league's worst 3-point shooting team in 2007-08, his top priority is adding a quality power forward.

The hard-working Reggie Evans and rookie Thaddeus Young, who is a natural small forward, handled the bulk of the "four" minutes this season. The offensively challenged Evans is best suited to 18 to 20 minutes a game, and the 6-8 Young, while tall and athletic enough to match up against more than half of the starting power forwards in the league, is at a size disadvantage against more traditional, bigger fours.
