Nerlens Noel limited at Sixers' D-League practice

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Nerlens Noel (knee) was a limited participant during his practice with the 76ers' D-League affiliate on Wednesday.

What It Means:

Noel will likely spend a few games getting his conditioning back in the D-League before getting his season debut with the big club. Expect another update on his status next week.

Noel averaged 11.1 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.5 blocks per game last season, contributing to a measly -2.0 nERD. Our models project him to average 12.2 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 blocks in 28.3 minutes per game over the rest of the season.
