Tayshaun Prince left Monday night’s game between the Pistons and Celtics in the first quarter after getting an inadvertent knee in the back.

Prince fell backward and was kneed in the back by teammate Jason Maxiell with 4:53 left in the first. Prince stayed on the floor for several minutes, holding his back, while doctors attended to him.

He was helped off the floor, limping.

Prince did not return to the game. Pistons’ blog Detroit Bad Boys should have updates on Prince’s condition through the evening.
