Dirk Nowitzki was helped to the locker room, putting no weight on his left leg, after a nasty spill in the third quarter of Dallas' game against the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday.
Minutes later, he was limping badly on his way into the X-ray room.
The team did not immediately have a status report, calling it only a "leg and ankle injury."
Nowitzki, the reigning NBA most valuable player, landed awkwardly after running and blocking a shot by San Antonio's Ime Udoka.
