VIDEO: Jahlil Okafor can't stand the Sixers' 0-15 start

Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters

A huge double-double of 25 points and 12 rebounds from Jahlil Okafor got the Philadelphia 76ers close, but it wasn't enough.

Minnesota Timberwolves swingman Andrew Wiggins exploded for 17 points in the fourth quarter as he single-handedly carried his team to victory on Monday night.

The loss dropped Okafor's Sixers to 0-15 on the season, and left Okafor utterly dejected on his way to the locker room.

Okafor is still searching for his first NBA victory after leading Duke to the NCAA title as a freshman last season.

But Okafor shouldn't lose faith in that process: The Sixers only need a few more lottery picks to possibly become relevant after three shambolic seasons in the tank.
