76ers' Lonnie Walker: Avoids serious injury

Walker didn't return to Thursday's 126-113 loss to the Bucks after suffering a bruised heel late in the third quarter, though head coach Nick Nurse said afterward that Walker was cleared to check back in, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Walker exited with 1:02 remaining in the third quarter and was checked out in the locker room. While Walker returned to the Philadelphia bench in the fourth quarter, the 76ers elected not to have him re-enter the contest. He finished the game with four points (2-7 FG, 0-4 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and one steal across 17 minutes.
