Injuries have been a major problem during the Philadelphia 76ers‘ recent cold spell, as Joel Embiid missed a handful of games with back soreness while J.J. Redick‘s hamstring tightness limited their already-depleted reserves on the wing.
Finally, there’s some good news regarding their depth chart.
Subtly included in an injury report this morning was the fact that Justin Anderson will play against the Portland Trail Blazers, marking his first appearance since Nov. 15., when he developed shin splints.
Regardless, having Anderson back is a big plus for the Sixers’ bench.
