CUNNINGHAM NOW A SIXER: The Philadelphia 76ers signed center William Cunningham to a 10-day contract Tuesday.
Cunningham is expected to fill in for forwards Derrick Coleman, side-lined by a sprained ankle, and Scott Williams, out with an abdominal strain. Both were placed on the injured list Monday.Cunningham, 23, started two games with the Utah Jazz after signing a 10-day contract Feb. 14. In six games for Utah, he averaged 1.3 points and 1.3 rebounds in 6.3 minutes per game.
ROBINSON ON I.L.: Glenn Robinson, the Milwaukee Bucks' leading scorer, was placed on the in-jured list Tuesday night prior to a game against the Washington Wizards.
A bone scan Tuesday afternoon revealed that Robinson suffered a bone compression to the tibial plateau in the left leg. He was hurt in the fourth quarter of the Bucks' 104-87 victory over Denver last Thursday.
The injury requires no treatment, according to the Bucks, but Robinson will be restricted from running as the injury heals. He is expected to miss up to three weeks.
Robinson, who is averaging 23.4 points per game, joins Milwaukee starting point guard Terrell Brandon on the injured list. Brandon sprained his left ankle in early February.
