Caleb Martin

Martin appeared close to return after he began on-court workouts last week. He's missing another yet another game as he's been ruled out ahead of Friday's game with the Hornets. Kelly Oubre Jr. should continue to see more opportunity with Martin sidelined.

Jared McCain had his meniscus surgery, Caleb Martin is trending toward a return Friday, and more on the Sixers injuries.

Martin and Bona resumed on-court workouts on Friday, but neither is ready to return to game action. The former's absence is more impactful in deep fantasy leagues, as the 76ers must rely even more on Kelly Oubre Jr. As for Bona, he may crack the rotation if cleared to return before Joel Embiid (sinus fracture) does.

Martin and Bona remain sidelined for Friday's game against the Pacers, but both appear to be trending in the right direction. They began on-court workouts on Friday, and the 76ers are considering them day-to-day moving forward. Philadelphia visits Charlotte on Monday, and no decision has been made regarding Martin's or Bona's statuses for that game.

Martin has been able to play in their last four games, but his role has decreased severely over their last two outings. He played less than 10 minutes in their last one, so his absence in this game won't have a dramatic impact on the rotation.
