Ex-Clipper Elton Brand’s first season with the Philadelphia 76ers took another sour turn during the third quarter of Wednesday night’s game against Milwaukee when he dislocated his right shoulder.

Brand, who is averaging a career low in points scored and field goal percentage, had four points and six rebounds in the game.

Brand played seven seasons for the Clippers and signed a five-year, $79.8 million deal as a free agent last summer with Philadelphia.

It’s unclear how long Brand will be sidelined. Last season, Brand missed all but eight games of the Clippers’ season after rupturing his Achilles tendon.
