VJ Edgecombe Remains Out with Back Contusion

Rookie VJ Edgecombe is sidelined for a third consecutive game due to a back contusion sustained from a hard fall against the San Antonio Spurs last week. He was unable to shake his questionable tag for Monday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. With Edgecombe unavailable, the shorthanded 76ers are expected to rely on expanded roles for players like Cameron Payne, Quentin Grimes, and Jabari Walker.
