T.J. McConnell: An Underdog That Could Make The Roster?

Here at The Sixer Sense, we published a look at an inspiring Philadelphia 76ers player, Pierre Jackson, who faced a tough road to get to where he is now. This year, he’s signed by the team, and is looking at finally getting a chance to play in the NBA.

This story resonated well with readers, and even Pappy Jack himself. @PAPPYGAWD retweeted our sharing of the link… twice. This led to lots of shares, and Isaiah Austin, one of the NBA’s most inspiring non-players also retweeted it.

We aren’t trying to brag, but it’s simply clear that stories like this are ones readers like, especially in the offseason.
