Furkan Korkmaz Will Miss Thursday’s Contest
3 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers shooting guard/small forward Furkan Korkmaz (wrist) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Pistons due to a sore wrist. Philly's three-point shooting stands to take a step back with Korkmaz joining Danny Green (hamstring) and Tobias Harris (health protocols) on the sidelines. Through eight games, Korkmaz has averaged a career-best 10.9 points and 3.0 assists on a nightly basis, serving as an integral member of the 76ers' rotation. With Philadelphia banged up at all levels, it's difficult to peg who will directly benefit most, but Georges Niang and Shake Milton stand to take on elevated roles in Korkmaz's absence.
