Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey was enjoying a career year, which will now probably have to be put on hold.
The former fifth overall pick exited Wednesday's game on a stretcher after a collision with Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony left him writhing in pain on the court. The scene immediately interrupted the action, with several players from both teams surrounding Ivey as trainers attended to him.
Further replay showed Ivey's ankle was bent several degrees the wrong way.

It was a somber scene as Ivey received treatment, with Anthony in tears as he looked on.
