    Last season for the 6ers, he was a very solid center for them until he went down after fracturing his ring finger.

    He's a big bulky body out of the Kelvin Cato mold. Could you see the 6ers entertaining the idea for the Exception and possibly a pick?

    Yep. I actually wanted this guy as our PF a could years ago. He can play PF as well. I liked his hands, and inside scoring. He's never been a great rebounder (5.7 last year). Back then I'd give up a little of Cato's defense for Marc's offense (actually can hit a 2 footer :D ).

    Not sure about his injury history; seems always injured. Just doesn't seem like he's developed very well. He caught my attention his Rookie year. But ever since then, he's just kinda languished. I'd take him as a backup. But not for much.

    A recurring theme. He's always hurt.
