Jahlil Okafor and Dario Saric have a history

When Dario Saric eventually joins the 76ers, potentially next summer, it will not be his first time competing with Philadelphia's most recent prized pick, Jahlil Okafor.

Back in 2013, both Okafor and Saric participated in the FIBA U19 World Games in the Czech Republic. Okafor represented the United States, while Saric played for Croatia. Both players were named to the All-Tournament Team along with familiar faces Dante Exum, Aaron Gordon, and Vasilije Micic, whose NBA rights are also owned by the Sixers.

Between Okafor, Nerlens Noel, and Robert Covington the Sixers are already forming a formidable frontcourt, and the eventual addition of Saric will only further bolster the team's depth. Although the two didn't play on the same team in 2013, it can't be a bad thing that Saric has some background experience with one of his future teammates.
