Utah guard Derek Fisher was taken to a
hospital for X-rays after he fell during the first quarter of the
Jazz's pre-season game against the Indiana Pacers on Saturday night.
Fisher drove to the basket and collided with Indiana forward
Jermaine O'Neal while attempting a shot with 7:09 left in the
quarter. Fisher, who was whistled for an offensive foul, hit his
back and head on the floor.
He remained down for several minutes before being helped to the
Jazz locker room. Jazz spokeswoman Cindy Edman said Fisher was taken
to the hospital for additional X-rays of his pelvis after X-rays at
Conseco Fieldhouse were unclear.
