PHOTO: Sixers' Summer League invitee shatters backboard
As the Philadelphia 76ers Summer League squad practiced on Friday, 2014 second-round pick Jordan McRae delivered his best Chocolate Thunder impersonation.

McRae, 24, was selected by the San Antonio Spurs with the 58th pick in the 2014 NBA Draft.
He played last season with Melbourne United, of Australia's National Basketball League (NBL). He finished the season with averages of 19.9 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and one steal in 27 games.
