Okafor has CT scan on sore right knee

Jahlil Okafor had a CT scan on his sore right knee on Tuesday that was being reviewed by 76ers doctors Wednesday night, coach Brett Brown said.

“We will know more tomorrow, maybe even later tonight,” Brown said before Wednesday’s home matchup against the Houston Rockets.

The 6-foot-11, 265-pound rookie missed the last four games with what the club called an injured shin after he bumped knees with teammate Isaiah Canaan late in a loss to the Orlando Magic on Feb. 28. He’ll miss Wednesday night’s game because it’s his right knee again – not his shin – that’s an issue.
