Edgecombe sustained the injury a night earlier on a hard fall, and the team will be without the rookie for the next contest as he recovers.

What it means for Wednesday

With Edgecombe unavailable against Utah, the 76ers will have to proceed without the rookie who has quickly drawn attention early in his first season. His status for Wednesday is officially out, confirming he will miss at least this game.
