NBA prospect Jordan Bell impresses Sixers

Jordan Bell's versatility stood out to the 76ers on Wednesday morning.

The 6-foot-7, 223-pound power forward out of Oregon was one of six draft prospects at the Sixers' second predraft workout. The superior athleticism of the Pac-12 defensive player of the year was evident in the portion of the scrimmage that the media were allowed to watch.

But the team was also impressed by what it learned about him off the court.

"For a Dennis Rodman-like player who has the ability to play across a few positions, mainly defensively, we sat with him, had a great interview as we've learned more about him," Sixers executive Brandon Williams said.
