Jahlil Okafor Reportedly Pulled Over For Speeding

The report says that Okafor “allegedly presented a fake I.D.at Misconduct Tavern in Center City”.

The reported speeding incident is not Okafor’s only run-in this season.

It’s been a rough week for Jahlil Okafor. He’s gone 7-for-23 from the field (30.4 percent) in the last two contests and has turned the ball over four times in that span. In response, Okafor will reportedly have more protection when he’s out and about from now on.

Okafor was drafted to the 76ers earlier this year.

While Ford’s suggestion will most probably benefit both teams at the moment, it is highly unlikely that the Lakers will give up what they deem is the potential heir to Kobe Bryant’s throne and it is also nearly impossible for the Sixers to trade Okafor, who is the best rookie statistically so far in the season.

On Sunday, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Okafor was involved in two other incidents in recent weeks.

The Boston Police Department is now investigating the extremely publicized fight after a police report was filed, and the Sixers plan to handle the situation “internally” after they complete their own investigation.

He closed by saying he is completely focused “on my responsibilities to the League, my teammates and fans”. Okafor said “It was definitely dumb on my part”. “It’s something that I am embarrassed about”.

“We’re all over him”, one person said. “I think the repetitiveness on the announcement exacerbates the problem”.

The move to protect its investment-the team selected Okafor with the third overall pick in the 2015 National Basketball Association draft-comes just days after the 19-year-old was involved in a brawl outside a Boston nightclub.
