Jared McCain and VJ Edgecombe emerged from the locker room Saturday afternoon and grabbed a pair of NBA TV microphones. That was part of a mini media tour for the two 76ers guards in the area behind the tunnel of the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

After a strong Summer League debut in Salt Lake City, VJ Edgecombe has been sidelined since the action shifted to Las Vegas due to a thumb injury. However, the Philadelphia 76ers have "optimism" that the rookie could return if his current progress continues,

The 76ers suffered a 41-point loss to the San Antonio Spurs in their Las Vegas Summer League debut without Edgecombe. They managed just 70 points in the game, with just two players — Keve Aluma and Mark Armstrong — cracking double digits. None of Philadelphia’s five starters reached double figures, as the team shot just 36.8 percent from the floor.
