MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- Memphis forward Rudy Gay, the team's second-leading scorer, left Tuesday night's game against the Philadelphia 76ers in the second quarter with a left shoulder injury.
Memphis officials said at halftime that Gay was not expected to return to the game.
Gay, who averages 20.0 points and 6.3 rebounds, was injured with 5:29 left before halftime as he drove across the lane. He was fouled by Evan Turner, and was on the court in pain after the foul.
Memphis called timeout, and Gay returned to the game only long enough to shoot the free throws - one-handed, unable to lift his left arm.
He made one of two free throws to give Memphis a 41-26 lead before play was stopped on a foul by Mike Conley to get Gay out of the game
