Khris Middleton is out again today vs Sixers, missing his seventh game in a row with an ankle sprain, but Doc Rivers says he’s improving
Rivers: “Getting closer. I don’t know if it’s close enough to say next game, but he’s getting a lot closer. He’s feeling a lot better” – 12:15 PM
Austin Krell @NBAKrell
Couple notes from Nick Nurse pregame:
– De’Anthony Melton’s body responded well to first game back, but he will still come off bench
– Based on feedback from Joel Embiid, himself, and medical staff since the knee procedure, he remains “really hopeful” for a return this season – 12:02 PM
