Sixers rule out Jahlil Okafor (knee) on Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Jahlil Okafor (knee soreness) has been ruled out against the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday.

What It Means:

Okafor has said that the Sixers are exercising a lot of caution with this injury, which makes sense as they have nothing left to play for this season and don't need to risk making it worse. Look for Richaun Holmes to draw another start at center tonight.

numberFire's models project Holmes for 8.7 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 18.3 minutes of action against the Nets tonight.
