ANALYSiS: The 6-foot-10 forward/center player for the Philadelphia 76ers last season, averaging 2.4 points and 3.0 boards in 9.7 minutes per game. Pelle should help bolster a Nets bench that lacks physicality inside with the departure of Jarrett Allen. Brooklyn used only nine players in Wednesday's loss to the Cavs.
