Jerryd Bayless

76ers' Jerryd Bayless may start Thursday in place of J.J. Redick (leg)

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Jerryd Bayless will likely enter the starting lineup against the Boston Celtics on Thursday.

What It Means:

The Sixers have a hole to fill with J.J. Redick (leg) expect to be out a week or two, and head coach Brett Brown said that Bayless will be the "first up" to fill in for Redick. Justin Anderson and Timothe Luwawu are both expected to see increased minutes as well.

numberFire's models project Bayless for 8.7 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 25.8 minutes of action against on Thursday.
