Trendon Watford Won't Return to NBA Cup Meeting with Orlando
Philadelphia 76ers forward Trendon Watford (adductor) will not return to Tuesday's NBA Cup clash with the Orlando Magic. With Philly down Joel Embiid (knee), Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee), Paul George (ankle) and VJ Edgecombe (calf), Watford was in line for extra action. Unfortunately, he suffered a left adductor strain near the end of the first half, requiring assistance off the floor. Watford would go on to finish with eight points and one rebound in 11 minutes. While it's far too early to speculate, it appears there's a good chance he'll miss extended time, starting with Friday's game versus the Brooklyn Nets, his former team. Fantasy managers could see more minutes from Justin Edwards and Jared McCain, although their stock will fall once George, Edgecombe, Embiid, or Oubre are back in the lineup.
