Whether or not the Philadelphia 76ers trade second-year center Jahlil Okafor to the New Orleans Pelicans, as the teams were discussing Monday according to a report from ESPN.com's Marc Stein and Marc J. Spears, the No. 3 overall pick of the 2015 NBA draft has a good chance of finding a new home soon after being squeezed out of Philadelphia's center rotation by fellow lottery picks Joel Embiid and Nerlens Noel.
As teams evaluate the idea of trading for Okafor, the first question they must answer is if he can become a useful NBA player since that hasn't yet been the case.
