Nerlens Noel will reportedly make season debut Sunday
What better way for the Philadelphia 76ers to get into the Christmas spirit than by singing “Noel, Noel”?
According to a report by Jessica Camerato of CSN Philly on Saturday, Sixers big man Nerlens Noel will make his season debut against the Detroit Pistons on Sunday and will come off the bench.

The 22-year-old Noel has been out since undergoing knee surgery in October. He averaged 11.8 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.8 steals, and 1.5 blocks per game for the Sixers in 2015-16.
Noel has been quite vocal about his displeasure with the team’s frontcourt situation and could still very well be dealt, so this may be his opportunity to rebuild his trade value in the hopes of punching his ticket out of Philly.
