Steve Zack has joined the Philadelphia 76ers Summer League roster, the team announced this week. Zack earned the spot after impressing during the team's mini-camp prior to the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, which tips off July 11.

The New Cumberland, Pa. native finished his career seventh on La Salle's all-time rebound list with 843 rebounds. Zack appeared in 123 games for the Explorers and ranks second all-time in blocked shots with 169. He also was named to the 2014 Atlantic 10 All-Defensive Team after leading the A-10 in rebounding [9.5 rpg] and ranking fifth in blocked shots [1.9 bpg].

"My main drive and motivation is having something to work for, to be able to win," Zack told CSNPhilly. "I love to compete and will do anything to help my team win."
