The Atlanta Hawks scored an 89-72 win over the Boston Celtics Tuesday night to take a 2-0 lead in the best of seven series but lost reserve point guard Dennis Schröder to an apparent ankle injury.
Training staff looking at Dennis during this timeout. He's now headed to the locker room.

Looked like an ankle for Dennis. Really not great.

Schröder suffered the injury in the game's final moments when he landed awkwardly on a drive to the basket. He crumpled to the floor and was later helped to the locker room area.
Schröder played just under 20 minutes in the game and finished with eight points and one assist while going 3 for 6 from the field. His condition will likely be updated tomorrow.
Update*
X-Rays on Schröder's injured ankle came back negative
Dennis Schroder had x-ray, was negative.

Left ankle for Scroder. X-ray negative but leaving with a limp and no shoe on.
