Nerlens Noel may have majored in cryptography while at Kentucky.

In a mysterious tweet, the Philadelphia 76ers rookie revealed apotential date for his NBA debut:

Friday, April 4, Noel's Sixers are traveling to face the Boston Celtics. Not so coincidentally, Noel hails from the Boston area. He was born in Malden,Massachusetts.

Using that logic, Noel's code isn't difficult to decipher.

Sixers coach Brett Brown previously indicated Noel wouldn't play this season, per FOX Sports' Sam Amico. But that was October. Things have changed. And I'm not just commenting on Philly's shallow, nigh-empty pool of NBA-caliber talent.

"There's a possibility," Noel told SiriusXM NBA Radio on playing this season in December, via ESPN.com.

More recently, Brown preached cautious optimism regarding his status moving forward.

"I dont want to paint the wrong picture, but he is going against bodies a little bit more," he explained, according to CSN Phlly's Dei Lynam. "He is moving in that direction."

If Noel is healthyenough to play, why not let him play?
