He went out with a shoulder injury just when the 76ers badly needed him.  Now it turns out the original estimate of 7-10 days which would equate to 3-5 crucial games might not be true.  A Sixers source has said there is an ?outside chance?

"We're looking at seven to 10 days - hopefully sooner," said Sixers coach Jim O'Brien before Friday's game against the Mavericks.

Chris Webber was unavailable for comment.
