This Horrendous Defense By Jahlil Okafor Is Truly Something To Behold

Posted Mar 4, 2017
This defensive effort by 76ers center Jahlil Okafor is the softest, wet-noodliest defense you’ll ever see in your dang life. Okafor’s never been known for his defense, but this play, in which he wanders around the paint, slowly lifts limp arms in the general direction of the ball, and then watches as Hassan Whiteside lofts up an uncontested shot, is a masterpiece of putrid basketball.
