As for Ja Morant, it was a bad reception, on the foot of an opponent, which cut short the evening by Tyrese Maxey. At the end of the first period against Milwaukee, the Sixers’ wisp was launched when his left foot hit that of Jevon Carter.
His ankle seems to be spinning and the back clenches his teeth, the time to shoot his two free throws, then goes to the locker room. He will not return, when he had just scored 24 points and 5 assists, at 9/12 to shoot (3/4 to 3-pts).
“He told me what he always says: ‘It’s ok coach'”told Doc Rivers about his discussion with his player at the break. “It sucks”commented Joel Embiid for the Philly Inquirer. ” What more can be said ? Just pray the exams don’t show anything. »
Finally, even if the first radio wanted to be reassuring, ESPN and The Athletic agree this evening that the MRI taken by Tyrese Maxey revealed a small fracture of the left foot, which will cause him to miss the next three to four weeks of competition. However, no operation is necessary.
An absence which, for Philadelphia, is thus added to that of James Harden until the beginning of December and it will force Joel Embiid to multiply more, as he has been doing for several days…
