    Houston Native, played against his little brother in football my senior year (can't remember which school it was, back in 2007-08). Glad to see the man get another chance, especially after this:

    He actually played with the 76ers a little bit earlier this year when Jahlil was on the squad. He sat on the bench and went in and out of the G-League for the Delaware 87ers and 76ers

    I know the Rockets have like 10 centers and only like 2 will play but I wouldn't mind giving Emeka a look.

    Agreed. It’s at least worth a look for sure. If he can D up and do some dirty work...

    He should be a better option than Nene at this point

    Saw some video of him playing pick up basketball with Melo and Harden in NYC. Lots of other players were there too like Ibaka, McGee and some others.

    If someone in 2015 told me that in 3 years time teams would be more interested in Emeka than Jahlil...
