Share

There was quite the scene at Chickie's and Pete's in South Philadelphia on Thursday night as former Sixer Nerlens Noel returned to town with the Mavericks for a game at the Center on Friday night.

Not only did Noel mingle with fans who supported him during his time as a Sixer, he also treated them to some cheesesteaks.

CSNPhilly.com's John Clark caught up with Nerlens and asked him about the special gesture.

"I just wanted to be able to show my appreciation for how much their support really meant to me," Noel said.

Noel also expressed his support for the Kentucky Wildcats in the NCAA Tournament as well as showing love for both of his former teammates, Joel Embiid and Dario Saric, in the Rookie of the Year race.
