Josh Richardson left early in the first quarter of the Philadelphia 76ers loss to Toronto (105-97) due to a left hamstring strain.

Richardson didn’t return to the game and he will be re-evaluated on Thursday. The ex-Heat guard missed 6 games earlier this season with a right hamstring injury.

Richardson, 26, is on his first season in Philadelphia, being acquired in a sign and trade deal with the Miami Heat for Jimmy Butler last summer.

He is averaging 15 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assist per game this season for the Sixers.
