Sampson (hip) is unsure if he'll be available for Sunday's game against the Celtics, Jessica Camerato of CSN Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sampson was removed from Wednesday's 96-87 win over the Magic with 4:19 remaining in the first quarter after suffering a left hip pointer. The 76ers initially were hopeful he'd be able to return to the contest, but Sampson was ultimately ruled out after he was experiencing too much pain to continue. He was spotted icing his hip in the locker room after the game, and is hopeful that having the next two days off will enable him to return to action Saturday. Sampson served as the 76ers' starter at shooting guard Wednesday, but if he can't play against the Celtics, those honors would likely go to either Isaiah Canaan, Hollis Thompson, or Nik Stauskas (shoulder).
