Stuckey stayed down for a moment before being helped to the dressing room. He was ruled out of the contest after halftime and didn't return. A prolonged absence would be another blow to the Pacers' backcourt, which is already without the injured C.J. Miles.

Stuckey re-signed with the Pacers this summer for three years and a reported $21 million. In five games this season, he's averaging 11.8 points on 46.9 percent shooting.
