Nerlens Noel will start for 76ers on Sunday
Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Nerlens Noel will start on Sunday against the Chicago Bulls.
Joel Embiid is sitting out due to rest on Sunday, while Jahlil Okafor is a game time decision. That leaves Noel and Richaun Holmes to do the heavy lifting from the center spot if Okafor is out. With those two potentially having to play the five for most of the game, Ersan Ilyasova could also see a few more minutes against the Bulls at power forward.
Our models expect Noel to post 10.3 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks over 23.4 minutes. If Okafor sits, Noel could see even more minutes than the 23.4 we are currently projecting him for.
