Just a couple seasons ago, Labaron Philon Jr. and Johni Broome were foes as Alabama faced Auburn in the Iron Bowl of basketball.
Now, the two are teammates.
Broome has been with the Philadelphia 76ers since he was drafted 35th overall last year, but Philon became the organization's latest rookie addition as the 22nd overall pick in June.
The unlikely duo fed off of each other in Philon's NBA Summer League debut. As the man from Mobile dropped 18 points and dished out a team-best seven **** ists, Broome came through with 19 points and 13 rebounds.
In the aftermath of the 101-93 win over the Detroit Pistons on Thursday, July 9, an unexpected reporter squeezed his way into Broome's media scrum.
