It started with Nerlens Noel. Then came Joel Embiid. Next came Jahlil Okafor. Finally, Tibor Pleiss?
Chronologically, that’s the order of transactions of the Philadelphia 76ers in filling the lineup spot of their center position. Ranking the depth chart is an altogether different matter.
This is most likely what it appears. The Utah Jazz needed some salary cap relief, so they decided to trade 7-foot-3 center Tibor Pleiss and his $2,800,000 guaranteed salary, plus two second round 2017 draft picks, to the Philadelphia 76ers for Kendall Marshall and his $2,000,000 NOT guaranteed salary.
