Reggie Jackson could miss the next two months after the Detroit Pistons guard was diagnosed with a Grade 3 ankle sprain Wednesday.
He will re-evaluated in six-to-eight weeks.
Jackson was injured in Tuesday's third quarter against the Indiana Pacers. After jumping to throw a kick-out pass to teammate Reggie Bullock on the wing, Jackson's right ankle rolled over on his landing, sending the 27-year-old to the floor in considerable pain.
Jackson is averaging 14.5 points this season on 44.6 percent shooting to go with 5.5 assists per game.
