76ers coach Eddie Jordan is expecting Elton Brand to return to form next season.

"Elton Brand's a 20(-point) and 10(-rebound) career player," Jordan said. "Good players find their way in any offense. When he helps his teammates, it'll be easier for him to score. There's a lot of parts of the offense that he can excel at."

Jordan has already been talking up both Brand and Andre Iguodala as potential All-Stars in the Eastern Conference next February.

"He's really ready to play," general manager Ed Stefanski said of Brand, who had season-ending surgery shoulder. "He'd be playing now (if we had games). Every candidate I interviewed was ecstatic and excited about coaching Elton Brand."
