The Toronto Raptors announced on Thursday that Previous Achiuwa will be sidelined indefinitely with what has been diagnosed as “partial tears in ligaments in his right ankle.”
Achiuwa will wear a walking boot for 10 days and be re-evaluated.
The injury occurred in the fourth quarter of Wednesday night’s home game against the Houston Rockets. Achiuwa drove to the basket from the left side of the floor, met Usman Garuba at the rim, and landed awkwardly on his right leg.
He limped off the floor but had to be helped back to the locker room, unable to put any weight on the leg.
