The Philadelphia 76ers are looking to get training camp underway with a full group as they look to get ready for the 2020-21 season. In order to get everybody on the same page under a new coaching staff, they will need the entire group to be there and ready to go.
Unfortunately, the team is missing a key veteran off the bench as well as their Round 1 rookie who the team has a lot of hope for.
Mike Scott is not with the team due to a positive COVID-19 test and he is going through the protocols before he can return to the team. He is expected to join them within the coming days.

The team is also missing rookie Tyrese Maxey who is also undergoing protocols related to a positive test. It is important that everybody comes to camp healthy and safely so the hope is that he will join the team soon.
