Smith (groin) likely won't play Saturday in Chicago, the Sixers' official site reports.

Analysis:

After a report earlier Saturday stating Smith was expected to play, he'll in all likelihood don street clothes. If his left groin concern keeps him on the pine, coach Brett Brown will insert Jakarr Sampson into the starting five at the point, with Hollis Thompson acting as the backup.
