Jahlil Okafor says he's excited to get to work for Sixers

WHILE THERE ARE some concerns surrounding 76ers top pick Jahlil Okafor, such as his defense, foul shooting and happiness to be here, he doesn't seem bothered by any of it.

The 6-11 center had his first official workout as a Sixer yesterday with other invitees who will participate in the Utah Summer League, which begins on Monday, and it didn't appear he would rather be anywhere else.

When the media were allowed to watch during the end of the two-hour session, Okafor made his way straight to the free throw line. The form looked good, and, at one point, he hit 12 of 14.
