Adem Bona Suffers Foot Sprain During FIBA World Cup Qualifiers

Philadelphia 76ers backup center Adem Bona suffered a foot sprain during the FIBA World Cup qualifiers, with expectations to return to on-court workouts within the first two weeks of training camp. Bona, who averaged 4.7 fouls per 36 minutes over his first two seasons, was expected to enter the year with the inside track for the backup center role behind Joel Embiid. His brief absence exposes potential early-season frontcourt depth concerns for the franchise.
