Jahlil Okafor Will Have a Bodyguard Provided by the 76ers From Now On

Jahlil Okafor has been in the middle of several off-the-court incidents as a rookie. He was involved in a street fight last week in Boston, and there were also reports of two separate prior incidents over the weekend, one for driving 108 MPH, and another where a gun was purportedly pulled on him in Philadelphia.

Tonight, Chris Broussard is reporting that the Okafor’s “handlers” have requested that the team provide a security guard for Okafor. He cites two sources that the team will honor that request. Okafor turns 20 this month.
