Celtics guard Kemba Walker was stretchered off the court on Friday night after suffering an apparent neck injury with just over three minutes remaining in the first half of Boston's game against the Nuggets.
The injury occurred when Walker collided head-into-chest with his teammate Semi Ojeleye in attempt to corral a missed shot. Following the contact, Walker immediately fell to the floor.
The game was delayed for more than five minutes as players on both teams looked on, gathering in prayer and holding towels over their heads.
Boston trailed Denver 36-30 at the time of the injury and the Nuggets led 45-34 at halftime.
