Merrill (elbow) is listed as out for Monday's game against the Hornets.

Merrill exited Friday's meeting with the 76ers because of a nagging elbow issue and didn't play in Saturday's 109-79 loss to the Knicks, marking his first absence of the 2026-27 campaign. With the 30-year-old now out for a second consecutive game, it should mean more minutes for Mario Hezonja, Meleek Thomas and Tyrese Proctor.
