Nicolas Batum Set To Miss Fourth Consecutive Game On Monday
10 months agoPhiladelphia 76ers forward Nicolas Batum (hamstring) continues to deal with a left hamstring strain that will keep him out of at least one more game. The team has already ruled him out on Monday for their game against the Dallas Mavericks. The 35-year-old's absence has been felt as the team's defense and ability to spread the ball around on offense have both suffered in the past few games. Batum, along with Joel Embiid (knee) and De'Anthony Melton (back), will be three of the five starters to watch from the sidelines while Tobias Harris (illness) could join them. Kelly Oubre Jr. has been in the starting lineup in his place, and could serve as a solid streaming option in deeper leagues.
