6. Tarik Black: 1 season (33 games) – 13.5 MPG, 5.5 PPG, 3.9 RPG, 0.3 APG

If this list were who I would least want to fight, Tarik would be the far and away top choice. On the court, he was still pretty dang okay. He would have likely had better numbers had he not been on the same team as the fastest-rising draft prospect maybe ever in Joel Embiid. Black held it down in the starting lineup for the first month of the season until Self was comfortable enough with Embiid, and then again when Embiid went down with a back injury late in the season. While they only made it to the second round of the NCAA Tournament, it could have been even worse if not for Black.
