J.P. Tokoto surprised many by leaving UNC after his junior season. Tokoto was a late second round pick, with his most obvious transferable skill being his elite athleticism. Second-round picks aren’t guaranteed contracts, and it will be important for Tokoto to showcase his defensive prowess if he hopes to make the 76ers roster. So far he is still struggling on the offensive end. (WRAL Sports Fan)
