Defensive stopper J.P. Tokoto finding his role with Sixers

Posted Jul 16, 2015
Even though J.P. Tokoto does not have impressive offensive numbers, that’s not his primary focus. Tokoto, the No. 58 overall pick during June’s NBA draft, sees himself as more of a defensive specialist. In Wednesday’s Las Vegas Summer League game, Tokoto showed some offensive spark. He had nine points on three shots and was 3 of 4 at the free throw line. (CSN Philly)
