Prospect Breakdown: Mfiondu Kabengele

It’s no secret that one of the reasons why the Sixers weren’t able to defeat the Toronto Raptors in the playoffs is because they didn’t have a dependable backup center. Getting Joel Embiid a few minutes to rest in every game is a must, and the team had no options to do that without hemorrhaging points in the biggest series of the year. This years draft class has a few potential options to become the new backup to Embiid, with one of the more interesting being Florida State center Mfiondu Kabengele.
