Multiple Sixers react to losing Andre Drummond to injury vs. Nets

NEW YORK -- The Philadelphia 76ers walked away with a 115-103 win over the Brooklyn Nets on the road. It got the Sixers back in the win column following a quick 2-game skid, and they saw the return of Paul George and Adem Bona from injury.

However, the Sixers saw another player leave with an injury in the form of Andre Drummond. The 2-time All-Star has been having a renaissance season as he has been dominant on the floor as a rebounder and he has taken steps forward on the floor as a 3-point shooter. He has been a terrific part of this Sixers roster, and when he left in the second quarter with a right knee sprain, it was a tough scene for everybody to watch.

After the win, multiple members of the Sixers reacted and gave a lot of love to Drummond:

Adem Bona on Drummond

"It’s really tough. This was my first game back, and he's going down. So, it's kind of tough to know that Andre is not there to come back in when I'm down, but hopefully, he gets well soon. It's kind of a blow to the team, but we all depend on him. I’m going to support him and hopefully, he gets back soon."

Tyrese Maxey on losing Drummond

"It sucks. That's all I can say. It really sucks. You don't want to see none of your teammates get hurt. So, we’re just gonna pray for him and hope he gets back fast."

Paul George on Drummond

"It’s tough. Dre, I feel like has been awesome this year. He's been consistent. He's been where we struggle at rebounding. He's been a big boost there, and stretching the floor out with his corner 3s. I feel like he's been so consistent for us. So, it is tough, and I know that injury. I know that injury very well. So it's the same one that's got KO (Kelly Oubre Jr.), it’s gotten me, it's been Drum. It’s a tough rehab. I don't know the severity of it, but hopefully it wasn't the case that mine was, because it's a challenge. The hyper extension is a challenge."

Jared McCain on Drummond

"He’s a great dude, too. Anytime, now going through an injury, anytime you see an injury, it's just, like, it's the worst feeling. You never wish that upon anybody. So just prayers to him and whatever he's got going on."

Coach Nick Nurse on Drummond

"Yeah, obviously it's really tough, and he was playing very well again tonight, right? It’s tough because, we got a couple guys back tonight. It’d be nice to keep adding instead of two steps forward, one back, but yeah, hopefully, he’ll check out OK tomorrow and see where we are."
