The Detroit Pistons suffered a potential injury blow midway through Game 6 when Jalen Duren rolled his ankle during the third quarter of an elimination game against the Cleveland Cavaliers at Rocket Arena.
Duren exited at the 6:11 mark on Friday, May 15, with the Pistons up 68-57, after crumpling to the floor when his left ankle rolled as he moved toward the hoop after setting a screen.
He went to bench, then the tunnel and was seen retying his left shoe. Paul Reed, who saw first-half action for the first time in these playoffs, replaced Duren in the lineup.
The Cavs scored the next four points with Duren out, with the Pistons taking a timeout.
