The club officially announced that a meniscus tear had been diagnosed in Joel Embiid, who had suffered pain in the fourth match.
The leader will miss the fifth game and no further predictions will be made: he will be monitored daily.
The 76ers said no operations would take place. The procedures will be performed on the injured right knee.
The Philadelphia team leads the Washington Wizards 3-1 in the quarterfinals with four wins. Game 5 will take place in Philadelphia next night.
In his career season, the 27-year-old Embiid averages 28.1 points, 10.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists.
