Jerryd Bayless (wrist) likely out multiple games for 76ers

Philadelphia 76ers guard Jerryd Bayless is expected to miss the next few games due to a bruised left wrist.

What It Means:

Bayless missed almost all of last season due to an injury in the same wrist, but he's only dealing with a bruise, so this shouldn't require any sort of surgery or extended absence. That said, the swelling hasn't gotten any better, and the 76ers are going to play it safe as a result. T.J. McConnell will see more minutes with Bayless sidelined, while Timothe Luwawu, Justin Anderson, and Nik Stauskas should also get additional run.

Bayless is averaging 19.0 FanDuel points in nine games this season while turning in 11.0 points, 2.1 3-pointers, 2.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.3 turnovers per game on a 46.1 field goal percentage and 42.2 3-point percentage.
