76ers' Nerlens Noel: Recalled from D-League

Noel (knee) was recalled Thursday from the D-League's Delaware 87ers.

Analysis:

Noel was sent down to the 87ers for additional rehab, but he'll rejoin the Sixers for another workout before likely returning to the D-League on Friday. A concrete timetable has yet to be released regarding Noel's eventual return to the court, but his participation in a limited practice Wednesday was another big step forward.
