Philadelphia 76ers

Damian Jones brings a combination of size (6’11”, 245 ibs), physicality, and athleticism that make for an ideal role player at center in the NBA.  If the 76ers manage to deal away either Noel, Okafor, or Embiid for the stud guard they want in return, a player like Jones will be crucial to the team’s success, as the third big man.

Jones is a great close range scorer, and his range is improving.  Philadelphians are certainly going to leave draft day with smile.
