Tacko Fall’s 76ers opportunity faces an early obstacle

Philadelphia 76ers center Tacko Fall experienced hip soreness during Wednesday's training camp session, head coach Nick Nurse revealed. Fall, who is attending camp on a non-guaranteed deal while competing for a two-way contract, will undergo an evaluation ahead of Thursday's practice to determine his availability.

The setback comes as the 76ers manage thin depth at the center position behind starter Joel Embiid. With Adem Bona sidelined at the start of camp, Fall has been competing alongside Ariel Hukporti for frontcourt opportunities before suffering the injury.
