Barlow out at least two weeks with a back stress injury

Imaging showed a lumbar spine bone stress response for Sixers forward Dominick Barlow, the team announced Monday. He will be reevaluated in two weeks, so he misses at least the first seven games of the season. Barlow has dealt with the back issue since at least early October and did not play in the preseason. With Ariel Hukporti out after tearing his Achilles in the preseason, Philadelphia opens short in the frontcourt.
