F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F! F!

Still looking for a video of this. But in case you didn't feel the disturbance in the Force, Deron Williams came down on Derrick Rose's foot after attempting a three. I haven't seen this yet, but this doesn't look good.

More coming...

Update from DesNews: X-Rays were negative.

TrueBlueJazz reaction

UPDATE from Shums in case you don't read comments,

DesNews Article

According to Buckley, the Jazz have “no immediate timetable” for Deron’s return, and the team should know more in “48 hours.”

It’s an inversion sprain, which Boozer characterized as “pretty bad,” and Ronnie Price said he hoped was “not as serious as it looked.”

Deron was on crutches after the game; he didn’t comment but joked that he planned to practice tomorrow. Obviously not gonna happen, but he seems upbeat.

Ronnie Price will play ahead of Brevin Knight, even after Brevin’s thumb is at full strength. Kirilenko will also be handing the ball much much more, even if CJ is playing the de-facto PG spot.

dwill has been pushing for a lights-out system since he got to slc. imagine season opener, the arena rocking, lights out…and dwill in street clothes. it cannot be. i refuse to accept the possibility.

F!??? haha

Please try and find the video. I can’t believe this is one of the games KJZZ decided not to show.

On the other hand, it’s probably a good thing that we didn’t see it live. I imagine that we would all feel like our hearts were being pulled out of our chests.

Deron, get better quick. We love you.

From AP:

Williams left the arena on crutches and wearing a protective boot. He refused to talk to reporters after the game.
