Jahlil Okafor heading to Nets as 76ers acquire Trevor Booker in swap
The Philadelphia 76ers are trading center Jahlil Okafor, shooting guard Nik Stauskas, and a second-round pick to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for power forward Trevor Booker.
What It Means:
Okafor logged a total of 25 minutes in two games for the 76ers this season, but he's likely looking at a starting role in Brooklyn, assuming he can beat out the likes of Tyler Zeller, Jarrett Allen, Quincy Acy, and Timofey Mozgov.
Okafor is averaging 14.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.1 blocks, and 2.1 turnovers in 26.2 minutes per game for his career (105 games).
