Kentavious Caldwell-Pope's Philadelphia welcome has already come with a story most people would struggle to believe. The veteran guard had barely settled into his new home with his family before Mother Nature apparently decided to make an introduction of her own.
According to Caldwell-Pope's wife, McKenzie, their penthouse was struck by lightning shortly after they paid the lease, causing flooding and forcing the family to temporarily move down several floors.
Naturally, the bizarre turn of events had the NBA world talking.
Caldwell-Pope joined the 76ers this offseason after agreeing to a buyout with the Memphis Grizzlies last month. Once he became a free agent, the two-time NBA champion followed his good friend, LeBron James, to Philadelphia.
McKenzie explained that shortly after they paid for the top-floor apartment, lightning struck the building, causing flooding. The family had to move down a few floors while service personnel worked on the damage.
