Toronto Raptors forward Norman Powell suffered an injury on his left ring finger in Friday’s win over the Detroit Pistons.

The injury occurred sometime during the fourth quarter, although Powell stayed in the game. Head coach Nick Nurse said post-game that there’s a chance he might have dislocated his finger but that further tests were needed.

Earlier this season, Powell missed a stretch of 11 games after dislocating his shoulder.

In 37 games this season, the 26-year-old is averaging 15.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.7 assists with a 49.9 field goal percentage.
