Nicolas Batum leaves game with possible right knee injury

The injury-ravaged Portland Trail Blazers may suffered another blow, as forward Nicolas Batum left the game against the Thunder after coming down awkwardly on his right knee. He had to be helped to the locker room after falling.

The Trail Blazers have ruled him out for the game, though X-rays came back negative. An MRI will likely come on Tuesday.

The Blazers already are without Wesley Matthews for the rest of the season due to a torn Achilles. Replacement Arron Afflalo sprained his shoulder last week and could miss the beginning of the playoffs. LaMarcus Aldridge is playing through a torn ligament in his thumb.
