Spurs guard Tony Parker suffered a pair of injuries to his right leg during a collision with an opponent while playing for the French national team.
The incident took place on Friday night and according to French sports newspaper L'Equipe, Parker left on a crutch with sharp pain in his right thigh.
As the pain subsided in his thigh, his ankle began swelling up.
Parker said in a statement that the collision caused "a blow to my thigh, and my ankle also turned."
He described the MRI of his ankle as "reassuring," calling the injury "a minor sprain, without any ligament damage."
