Cavs' Thompson spotted on crutches after leaving loss to Pacers

Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson left Wednesday's 124-107 loss to the Indiana Pacers with a left calf strain and didn't return. He was spotted afterward on crutches, per The Athletic's Jason Lloyd.

The Cavs gave no further update on Thompson's condition Wednesday night, although he will undergo an MRI Thursday, according to NBA TV's David Aldridge. Cleveland - which has lost four straight and five of six - next plays Friday against the Washington Wizards.

Thompson moved back into the starting lineup last week and is averaging 4.6 points and six rebounds on 56 percent shooting from the floor.
