Utah Jazz guard Derek Fisher taken to hospital

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.
