Philadelphia 76ers guard VJ Edgecombe downplayed an accidental elbow to the nose from Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James during a regular-season game. The incident occurred late in the contest when James was pushed from behind by teammate Donovan Mitchell while contesting a rebound, inadvertently striking the 21-year-old Edgecombe flush in the face.
