I would assume for maturity and depth. Admittedly, I don't know much about this guy. But I like post players, especially for depth. And he's a one year deal. I'm not sure how it's going to hurt anything, other than getting JWes on scholarship = big whoop.
He will be a guy who can come in and rebound, and maybe block some shots. I'm okay with that - Ellis and Embiid are going to offer offensive presence.
