Okafor signed a non-guaranteed contract with the Hawks on Thursday, Shams Charania of The AThletic reports. The Scoop:The veteran big man spent last season in Detroit, where he appeared in just 27 games and averaged 5.4 points and 2.4 rebounds. The former No. 3 overall pick did not receive much interest in free agency, but he'll latch on with Atlanta and attempt to make enough of an impact to eventually convert his deal to a fully guaranteed contract. Early in the season, Okafor figures to provide depth at center while Onyeka Okongwu (shoulder) recovers from offseason surgery. Sep 16 10:07 ET - | ||||||||
Jahlil Okafor: Traded to Brooklyn Okafor — along with Sekou Doumbouya — were traded to Brooklyn for DeAndre Jordan, four future second-round picks and $5.78 million, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. The Scoop: Okafor posted a career-low 5.4 points and 2.4 rebounds per game for the Pistons last season. It's unclear what the Nets will elect to do with Okafor as they likely were only making this move to move on from DeAndre Jordan's contract. Sep 3 1:43 ET |
Jahlil Okafor: To start Friday Okafor will start Friday's contest against the Nuggets, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports. The Scoop: With both Mason Plumlee (rest) and Isaiah Stewart (personal) out, Okafor will make his first start of the season. In the 11 games this season that Okafor has seen at least 15 minutes, he's averaged 6.9 points and 3.3 rebounds. May 14 11:28 ET |
Jahlil Okafor: Rejoins rotation Okafor posted 12 points (5-5 FG, 2-2 FT) and four rebounds in 22 minutes off the bench Tuesday in the Pistons' 102-99 loss to the Hornets. The Scoop: Okafor was inactive for the Pistons' previous two games with a "not with team" designation, but he returned to action Monday. Detroit was resting Mason Plumlee for the third game in a row, which allowed Okafor to step into the rotation as the backup center behind Isaiah Stewart. If Plumlee is cleared to play Thursday against the Grizzlies, Okafor may not get minutes in a competitive game. May 5 1:54 ET |
Jahlil Okafor: Not listed on injury report Okafor is not on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against Charlotte. The Scoop: A personal matter kept Okafor away from the team for the last two games, but it looks like he'll be back to active status Tuesday night. With Mason Plumlee resting for the fourth straight game, Okafor should be in line for some reserve minutes behind projected starter Isaiah Stewart. May 4 7:35 ET |
