Howard Suspended

The Orlando Magic will be without Dwight Howard for tomorrow night's Game 6 at the Wachovia Center. The NBA just announced a one-game suspension for the elbow Howard delivered in the first quarter of last night's Orlando victory.

The incident occurred a few minutes into the first quarter when Howard, tangled with Sixers center Samuel Dalembert, elbowed Dalembert as the two were separating. Last night, Howard was only hit with a technical foul for the incident, but immediately after the game Sixers coach Tony DiLeo said the team had already contacted the NBA about further action.
