PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Tobias Harris scored 34 points to lead the short-handed Philadelphia 76ers to a 115-106 victory over the New York Knicks on Thursday night.
The 76ers played without injured All-Stars Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons.
Already missing Simmons because of a back injury, Embiid sat after spraining his left shoulder in Wednesday night’s loss at Cleveland when he collided with Ante Zizic. X-rays following the game didn’t show a fracture. He was re-evaluated before Thursday’s game, and the 76ers said they would have an update Friday.
“It’s a painfully obvious bind,” Philadelphia coach Brett Brown said.
