Scottie Barnes will reportedly miss the next few weeks with a right ankle injury, according to ESPN's Sham Charania.

The Toronto Raptors star injured his ankle during the team's 113-108 loss to the New York Knicks on Monday night

Barnes, in the third quarter of the game at Scotiabank Arena, went up to try and block Karl-Anthony Towns at the rim from behind. Barnes was called for a foul on the play, and he collided awkwardly with Towns as he came down to the court.

Both Barnes and Towns fell down after their collision, and Barnes immediately reached for his right foot. Clearly in significant pain, Barnes was seen telling trainers that he couldn’t feel his foot while sitting on the court.

He was helped up and he hopped off the court to the locker room without putting any weight on his foot.
