Nicolas Batum Stays On Sidelines Wednesday
10 months agoPhiladelphia 76ers forward Nicolas Batum (hamstring) won't feature against Miami on Wednesday, missing a ninth consecutive game. The French veteran is trying to recover from a hamstring strain but still needs more time to heal. However, the good news for the Sixers and him is the fact that the team will be off until Feb. 22 following Wednesday's action, which will give Batum a lot of time to get ready for the next game. With Tobias Harris (hip) also out of the lineup, Kenyon Martin Jr. moved to the starting unit on Monday versus Cleveland. Philadelphia's injuries have also boosted the playing time of Ricky Council IV.
