Nerlens Noel of the Philadelphia 76ers left Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards with a right ankle sprain. He did not return.
Noel played 25 minutes in the contest and recorded five points and eight rebounds. Noel left Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets early as well with a facial injury, but returned to start against the New York Knicks on Sunday.
The center is averaging 10 points, 8.1 rebounds and almost two blocks a game this season, his first in the NBA after sitting out all of last year.
