Jahlil Okafor is getting to know the city of Philadelphia better now that he’s been drafted by the 76ers as evidenced by his stop at Tuesday’s Phillies-Brewers game in order to throw out the first pitch.
Needless to say, Jahlil made the baseball look like a slightly large bouncy ball in comparison to his hands (It’s been well documented that Okafor has the ability to make any graspable object look like a child’s toy).

As for Jahlil’s pitch, he threw the ball straight and true. Unfortunately, the pitch was also a tad high for the Phillie Phanatic which, given Okafor’s towering height, is definitely understandable.
