76ers rookie Jahlil Okafor borrowing NBA veteran Elton Brand's car
Here's what Brand had to say about Okafor last month, when he told The Cauldron he planned to sign with Philadelphia:

"You might’ve noticed we’ve got a pretty talented kid on the roster in Jahlil Okafor, someone I happen to share some things in common with. Despite how he’s been portrayed, I know Jahlil. He’s a good kid with a good heart. He’s not unlike most 20-year-olds you probably know, and he’s definitely not at all different than most of his fellow players.
Hell, if camera phones were around when Brad Miller, Ron Artest, and I were Jahlil’s age, we might’ve been banned from the league altogether, never mind suspended for a few games."
