Nerlens Noel put on an impressive display of drills for about 30 minutes on Thursday following the Philadelphia 76ers' practice.

Noel is rehabbing his surgically repaired left knee.

"You can see, even though it's just sort of shadow boxing, you can't help to see how quick he jumps, his athleticism, his length," said Brett Brown. "It is exciting to just look out there and see what you project to be. He doesn't appear to favor [the knee] at all. Things are going well. All those things that we have to get through in order to at some point get him on a court, are going well."

Noel's next steps will be playing with others and then against players.
