Noel had an MRI on Saturday, which concluded that the big man was dealing with a bone contusion on his right knee, Jessica Camerato of CSN Philadelphia reports.

Analysis:

With the MRI not suggesting Noel is dealing with any structural damage, it looks like he'll continue to be evaluated on a day-to-day basis by the 76ers. Noel is sitting out his third straight game Sunday against the Warriors, but could be cleared to play in advance of Tuesday's tilt with the Hornets. Look for the team to provide another update on Noel's condition by Tuesday morning.
