Howard suspended for Game 6

Orlando center Dwight Howard will miss tonight's Game 6 against the Sixers due to a suspension, the league announced Wednesday afternoon.

Howard elbowed Sixers center Samuel Dalembert in the head with 9:15 left in the first period of Tuesday night's game.

Howard has averaged 24 points, 15.8 rebounds and 2.8 blocked shots through the first five games of the series.

But Dalembert wasn't Howard's only victim. He caught teammate Courtney Lee in the face causing a fractured sinus. Lee is out for Wednesday night's game.
