76ers expect Wroten back in 8-10 days

Help may soon be on the way for the winless Philadelphia 76ers.

Guard Tony Wroten, who has yet to suit up this season after tearing his ACL in January, is expected back in the next eight-to-10 days, according to head coach Brett Brown.

Wroten was enjoying a breakout season before his mid-season injury last year. averaging career highs in points (16.9), assists (5.2), and steals (1.6), although his shooting remained an issue at 40 percent.

Wroten, who led the team in scoring at the time of his injury, should once again get to play through his mistakes on a 76ers team desperate for NBA-level talent.

Philly enters Wednesday against the Los Angeles Lakers looking to avoid the first 0-19 start in NBA history.
