Tyler TrumbauerNerlens Noel could return to the Sixers soon. Remember him? Well, the somewhat forgotten big man, who still wants out of Philadelphia, could make his 2016-17 season debut this weekend.
I just spoke to Nerlens & he told me: “I’m ready.” I asked him to put a # on his body: 85%. They’ve discussed a possible debut Sunday at DET

The Sixers visit Detroit for a 6 P.M. game on Sunday evening. If Noel does not hit the floor then, the team’s next game is Wednesday at home against the Toronto Raptors at 7pm.
Noel is with the team and traveling with it, which does show that a return is near, and apparently is only a few days away.
