Los Angeles Lakers center Timofey Mozgov was forced to leave Tuesday night's contest versus the Indiana Pacers after suffering a left-eye contusion, according to Mark Medina of the L.A. Daily News.

Mozgov will undergo a CT scan on Wednesday to determine whether he has an orbital fracture.

Mozgov accumulated six points and five rebounds prior to sustaining the injury. For the season, the 7-foot-1 Russian is averaging 9.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks.

The 30-year-old was signed by Los Angeles this summer, inking a four-year, $64-million contract at the start of free agency.
