It didn't look that serious when it happened, but obviously it was.  Just looked like another play where somebody gets clipped in the head on a play that happens fairly frequently.   He was shook up a bit but at that moment did not appear that it would be anything that would cause a problem for the next game.

He was doing the airplane down the court, mocking the crowd, after scoring a basket to put them up 29 with 4 minutes left in the game.  About 10 seconds after doing the airplane, he got caught by an inadvertent elbow on a drive by Siakam.  If sports karma was such a thing (I don't believe it is)  that would be the textbook definition of it.    Let's not even mention the various cheap shots and dangerous play he had done in the series, including one late in the 3rd quarter on Boucher.   But despite the comments above in no way am I cheering or glad that he is out due to injury.

I think the bigger question is why Doc Rivers had him on the floor, when Philly was up by about 30 with 4 minutes to go.   Another playoff screwup by Doc.
