Nerlens Noel unhappy with 76ers roster situation

Nerlens Noel needs something to change. While the defensive anchor of the Philadelphia 76ers stopped short of demanding a change of scenery, it’s clear that he is frustrated by the team’s direction.

Speaking to the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Keith Pompey, Noel vented about the current construction of the Sixers roster, which includes three centers selected within the top six picks of their respective drafts. Noel has seen the Sixers tank their way through three seasons since Philadelphia acquired him in a draft day trade with the New Orleans Pelicans in 2013 and all they have to show for it is a bunch of guys that play the same position that he does.
