DALLAS — Tim Hardaway Jr. exited with an apparent injury against his former team on Friday night. With the Detroit Pistons and Dallas Mavericks going head-to-head, Hardaway suffered the injury scare in the middle of the second quarter. He was ultimately helped off the floor and exited to the locker room after what appeared to be an ankle concern.

The Mavericks thanked Hardaway for his time in Dallas by putting together a tribute video which was played during the first official timeout on Friday night. Then, in a cruel twist of fate, Hardaway suffered an ankle injury during the second quarter and had to be helped off the floor.
