2012 NBA Draft Results: Arnett Moultrie Selected By Heat With No. 27 Pick, Will Be Traded To Sixers
Moultrie is an active, athletic big man who has some skills but doesn’t figure to be a great defender, rebounder or bruiser at the NBA level. The Sixers will reportedly send Miami a future first-round pick and the No. 45 in this draft to take Moultrie, who slots in behind Elton Brand (who may be waived via amnesty), Spencer Hawes (who is a free agent) and Thaddeus Young (who is sorta kinda a small forward).
