Raptors center Jonas Valanciunas will miss the remainder of the series against the Heat with a sprained right ankle, the team announced Sunday.
Valanciunas suffered in the injury in the third quarter of Toronto's 95-91 Game 3 win over the Heat on Saturday afternoon when he was contesting Heat guard Dwyane Wade's layup attempt at the rim.
Valanciunas stayed down after falling awkwardly before getting up and limping to the locker room. The team initially said he would not need X-rays, but then Valanciunas did undergo precautionary X-rays, which were negative.
Valanciunas had 16 points and 12 rebounds at the time of the injury for his fourth straight double-double of the playoffs.
The Raptors lead the series 2-1.
