Orlando Magic guard Devin Cannady underwent surgery Monday morning to clean out his right ankle after sustaining a dislocation with a severe lateral ankle sprain during Sunday’s game against the Indiana Pacers at Amway Center, the team announced.
Further evaluation revealed Cannady’s bones and cartilage remained intact, according to the team. Cannady has been placed in a plaster splint and will be re-evaluated during his rehabilitation and is expected to make a full recovery.
Cannady contested a layup attempt late in the first quarter by Pacers forward Edmond Sumner and appeared to land awkwardly on his right leg as the two went out of bounds.
