Jahlil Okafor no longer on minutes restriction for Philadelphia
Philadelphia 76ers center Jahlil Okafor's playing time won't be limited anymore, according to Sixers head coach Brett Brown.
Joel Embiid is active on Monday night, so don't expect Okafor to exceed his 24-minute season-high by much versus the Miami Heat. This will be relevant for back-to-backs and other games Embiid sits. The 76ers have a back-to-back set next Sunday and Monday.
numberFire's metrics project Okafor to record 13.1 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.9 blocks against the Heat.
