Toronto Raptors’ Scottie Barnes was seen limping away off the basketball court on one leg due to an ankle sprain amid a narrow 113-108 loss to New York Knicks on Monday night in the NBA fixture. In a video surfaced on social media, Barnes was seen with a shocked expression while holding his foot before limping away.
The incident occurred in the third quarter of the game at Scotiabank Arena as Barnes jumped to break Karl-Anthony Towns scoring attempt from behind. With the referee calling him out for foul play, he clashed with Towns and landed awkwardly. The Raptors star was seen writhing in pain and reportedly told the trainers that he couldn’t feel his foot.
Below is the video of his awkward landing and limping away off the court.
