As reported by the Indiana Pacers' official Twitter account, David West went down with an ankle injury during the team's preseason matchup with the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday:

Multiple reports indicate that he rolled his right ankle after being blocked from behind by a Dallas defender. He yelled out in pain almost instantly and could put no weight whatsoever on his injured ankle.
At this point, the initial word is a ankle sprain. However, the Indiana Pacers will undoubtedly conduct several tests of their own both in-house and out-of-house before making any final judgments on how long West will be out.
Stay tuned.
