The Philadelphia 76ers will use a 16th roster spot thanks to the Hardship Roster Exception to sign PG Phil Pressey, a source tells Bob Cooney of the Philadelphia Daily News.
The Sixers are able to use this exception due to having 4 players that are injured or sick that have missed at least 3 games and will be out for at least 2 weeks after those 3 games. Joel Embiid (out for the season), Tony Wroten (expected to return in December), Kendall Marshall (expected to return later this month) and Carl Landry (expected to return in January) have all missed the first 3 games of the season.
