• Sixers Unlikely To Replace Ariel Hukporti Before December

  The Philadelphia 76ers are unlikely to sign a replacement for Ariel Hukporti before early December, according to Marc Stein and Jake Fischer of The Stein Line. Hukporti suffered a torn Achilles last Monday. With the team just $1.8 million below the first apron, minimum contracts in early December become pro-rated and would no longer push the payroll past the apron. The Sixers are already without Adem Bona and Tacko Fall due to injuries.
