Jan 1, 2018 - 10:29 AM C Joel Embiid (back tightness) was back in the lineup after missing Philadelphia's Saturday win in Denver but injured his right hand in a collision with Suns guard Devin Booker when he crashed to the floor with 3:54 left. Postgame X-rays were negative, and Embiid said he was told the hand was sprained. "It's OK, I think I will be fine. They said it wasn't broken," said Embiid, who finished with 22 points, nine rebounds and five assists."It was numb (initially), but I wanted to stay in and I wanted to win the game."No one has shouted yet.
