James (rest) won't be available for Saturday's preseason contest against the Celtics, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports. The Sixers will be resting several players for this contest, and James is one of the many projected starters who will be taking a seat alongside Joel Embiid and Jaylen Brown. The 76ers will manage James' workload carefully with an eye toward having him ready for the regular-season opener against the Knicks on Tuesday, Oct. 20.

James recorded 10 points (1-1 FG, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal in 18 minutes during Thursday's 114-108 preseason loss to Brooklyn. James made his first appearance in a Philadelphia uniform after joining the franchise during the offseason, taking just one field-goal attempt while focusing primarily on facilitating the offense. The 41-year-old forward played exclusively in the first half and converted all eight of his free-throw attempts. James figures to remain a significant fantasy contributor in his 24th NBA season, though his scoring opportunities could decrease alongside Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid and Jaylen Brown.

James (rest) will make his preseason debut Thursday against the Nets, per ESPN.com. After sitting out the preseason opener, the future Hall of Famer will make his first appearance in a 76ers uniform Thursday. James should get some reps in the first half before handing things off to Philadelphia's younger players in the second half.

James (rest) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason game against the Knicks, Chris Hine of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports. James won't make his 76ers debut Monday and will be joined on the sidelines by Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. James is dealing with chronic arthritis in his left foot as he prepares for his first season with the 76ers. His longtime trainer, Mike Mancias, is reportedly giving the 41-year-old's left foot special attention during his daily pre-practice routine while continuing to manage the lower-back issues that caused James to miss the first month of the 2025-26 regular season with sciatica. The arthritis isn't necessarily new, as James appeared on injury reports with left foot arthritis last season, but Philadelphia has already discussed managing his workload and back-to-backs, making his availability worth monitoring throughout his 24th NBA campaign.
