MIAMI -- Toronto Raptors center Jonas Valanciunas suffered a sprained right ankle in the third quarter of Game 3 against the Heat on Saturday afternoon and was ruled out for the rest of the game.
Valanciunas suffered the injury contesting Heat guard Dwyane Wade's layup attempt at the rim.
Valanciunas stayed down after falling awkwardly before getting up and limping to the locker room. The team first said he would not need X-rays, but then Valanciunas did undergo precautionary X-rays which were negative.
Valanciunas had 16 points and 12 rebounds at the time of the injury for his fourth straight double-double of the playoffs.
