11月3日，来自24直播网的最新消息，76人的随队记者Adam Aaronson在《PhillyVoice》的球迷互动平台上，就球队新星拉巴隆·菲隆本季上场时间较少的话题进行了探讨。
According to Adam Aaronson, the primary challenge for Philon revolves around the intense competition at the Sixers' guard spot. Head coach Nick Nurse favors allocating extensive playing minutes to the team's finest and available players, which implies that Maxi and Edgecumbe will secure a significant portion of court time. Concurrently, backup player Anfernee Simmons has showcased remarkable performances in three games over the past week, demonstrating his indispensable role as a vital offensive weapon for the 76ers.
Adam Aaronson强调，拉巴隆·菲隆与马克西的联手备受瞩目，然而在76人队的控球阵容中，马克西、埃奇库姆、西蒙斯以及詹姆斯均位列菲隆之上，这使得为他争取更多上场时间变得颇具挑战。
尽管费城76人队实行了十人轮换制度，西蒙斯、韦德和波普已经稳居替补席，但球队仍需确定一名替补中锋。这暗示了即便菲隆能够加入轮换阵容，他可能也仅仅能获得少数几次短暂的上场时间。
在球员缺席的情况下，拉巴隆·菲隆有望获得更频繁的上场机会；然而，目前76人队面临的主要缺席风险在于詹姆斯或恩比德。通常，球队需部署体型更为庞大的球员来填补这一空缺。
According to Adam Aaronson, the presence of Maxi and Edjoku in good health, coupled with Simmons' ongoing exceptional performance, is likely to significantly curtail Philon's on-court minutes. Simmons' arrival to the 76ers has further complicated Philon's rotational prospects.
在本赛季迄今为止的比赛中，拉巴隆·菲隆共出战5场，平均每场得到6.8分钟的出场时间，贡献了2.4分和1个篮板，其投篮成功率为38.5%。
