Josh Giddey delivered an impressive performance, scoring a season-high 29 points alongside 10 rebounds, but unfortunately exited midway through the final quarter due to a right ankle injury.
The dynamic Australian shone brightly as the Chicago Bulls clinched their third consecutive win, comfortably overcoming the Indiana Pacers with a score of 121-103 on Tuesday (AEDT).
However, the match took a worrying turn when Giddey limped off during the closing stages.
The 22-year-old leapt to secure a rebound but landed awkwardly, grimacing in pain almost immediately, and was visibly frustrated as he made his way up the tunnel.
Bulls coach Billy Donovan confirmed that the Melbourne native sustained a sprained ankle, with reports emerging from the US indicating that he was seen in a moon boot.
