Stauskas underwent an MRI on Tuesday, and the results revealed nothing more than a left knee contusion, Keith Pompey of the Philly Inquirer reports.

Analysis:

Stauskas departed Monday's loss to Minnesota with pain in his left knee, finishing with two points in just 12 minutes of action. Tuesday's MRI was mostly precautionary, but the results are a relief nonetheless, as Stauskas has avoided any sort of injury that would keep him out for an extended period. That said, considering the discomfort was enough to force him from Monday's game, Stauskas could miss a game or two in the short term. Philadelphia is off Tuesday before playing at Boston on Wednesday night.
