Robert Covington just left the Sixers game on a stretcher after spending minutes on the floor following a collision. Jerami Grant got his legs taken out from under him and appeared to catch RoCo pretty hard on the chin with his foot, possibly putting stress on Robert’s neck:

It was a scary moment, but Cov raised his hand to the fans on his way into the tunnel. Jerami Grant is also being checked for a concussion. We’ll have more if the Sixers issue an update.
Update: Covington was taken to the hospital.
