Andrew Bynum Not Playing in Sixers’ Season Opener

This, of course, isn’t a surprise to anyone. But the Philadelphia Sixers did make it official that they’ll kick the season off sans newly-acquired center Andrew Bynum. From the Philly Inquirer: “Additionally, the Sixers said there is no timeframe for Bynum’s return. ‘While Andrew and the 76ers are both eager for him to resume game play as soon as possible, given the long regular season and the playoffs, the team intends to act with caution as to the date of his return,’ read a statement issued by the team. ‘Andrew has already commenced low-impact conditioning,’ the statement continued, ‘and will be re-evaluated by medical personnel on a continuous basis.'”
