Billy Donovan says Zach LaVine responded positively to his first day of contact practices.
Reasonable timeline is that he could be back in the lineup within the next week. Billy did not rule out a return at home on Friday. – 5:43 PM

This guy leaves it on the floor Every. Single. Night. @ACFresh21 Alex Caruso is the only NBA player to currently rank in the top 10 in both 3FG% and deflections this season. Caruso ranks T-6th in 3FG% (.455) and 8th in total deflections (87) among all NBA players. What a player. – 5:12 PM

#Sixers go big for Zach LaVine and Caruso now or wait til the summer when the team could have up to 5 picks to trade and more than max cap space to go star hunting…
