Batum Heads Back to Sixers' Bench as Harris Returns
The Philadelphia 76ers are set to welcome back Tobias Harris into the starting lineup for Friday’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers, which will push veteran forward Nicolas Batum back to a reserve role.
According to reports from Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com, Batum had been filling in as a starter during Harris’ recent absence due to an ankle injury. However, with Harris now recovered and ready to retake his spot, Batum will revert to his familiar role off the bench.
