Looking for a third straight win, the Pacers took a 62-57 lead into halftime on Sunday night in Orlando.
Caris LeVert scored nine of Indiana's first 18 points on Sunday to help the Blue & Gold get out to an early lead. The Pacers led 23-17 with a little over three minutes remaining in the opening quarter when Magic rookie guard Devin Cannady contested a layup attempt by Edmond Sumner.
Cannady landed awkwardly and it quickly became clear that he had suffered a traumatic injury to his lower right leg. Teammate Mo Bamba took off his jersey and used it to cover Cannady's leg, while Pacers head coach Nate Bjorkgren ran out onto the floor to help comfort the 24-year-old, a Mishiwaka, Ind.
