Adelaide 36ers superstar Bryce Cotton admits he and his teammates remain \u2018in the dark\u2019 about the future of Montrezl Harrell<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 2020 NBA Sixth Man of the Year didn\u2019t suit up for the 36ers during Sunday\u2019s Pavlos Giannakopoulos Tournament clash with Panathinaikos<\/a>, amid a matter raised during his time with Chinese club Xinjiang Flying Tigers.<\/p>\n

During an interview with SEN SA Breakfast on Wednesday, five-time NBL MVP Cotton explained how the playing group were still coming to terms with the news.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t really talk too much about what happened because I don\u2019t have all the information, because it\u2019s all happened very fast,\u201d Cotton said via SEN SA Breakfast.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the higher-ups are figuring that stuff out. It was all news to us; we\u2019re still in the dark about it and learning [for ourselves].\u201d<\/p>\n

Cotton went on to say, in light of Harrell\u2019s potential absence, he believes Isaac Humphries can make the most of the extra opportunity, while stating the club would have to \u2018find a player that can match what Trezz brought us\u2019 if they went down the route of a replacement.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s about seeing how we can pull a rabbit out of a hat in a quick time. The NBA is going to start making some cuts, so that\u2019s a good window to catch some heavy talent,\u201d three-time NBL champion Cotton said.<\/p>\n

The 36ers tip off their 2025-26 Hungry Jack\u2019s NBL campaign on Sunday, with a home match against Brisbane.<\/p>\n

The round two clash tips off at 4.30pm AEST, live on ESPN and Channel 10.<\/p>\n
