Things are not getting better for the Indiana Pacers<\/a>. On Sunday, they suffered a 122-104 loss at the hands of the Toronto Raptors<\/a> at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, which extended Indiana\u2019s losing streak to four games.<\/p>\n

Making the day worse for Indiana was the injury suffered by second-year forward Johnny Furphy in the second half.
The 21-year-old Furphy made a cut to the basket during a Pacers possession in the third quarter and tried to go up for a dunk.<\/p>\n

He made the throwdown, but appeared to suffer an injury after landing on the floor. Furphy immediately grabbed his right knee while in clear pain<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The former Kansas Jayhawks star later went to the locker room in a wheelchair, which was not an encouraging sight for the Pacers and their fans.<\/p>\n

Here is a short clip of his landing and injury:<\/p>\n

Before he left the Raptors game, Furphy scored four points on 2-for-3 shooting from the field, dished out three assists and grabbed two rebounds in 15 minutes of action.<\/p>\n

Furphy\u2019s injury adds to the headaches of Indiana, which is already missing the services of star point guard Tyrese Haliburton<\/a> for the entire 2025-26 NBA season.<\/p>\n

The Pacers are also without Obi Toppin, while team newcomers and trade deadline acquisitions Ivica Zubac and forward Kobe Brown are still not with the team.<\/p>\n

The banged-up Pacers, who dropped to 13-40, will look to rebound and win their first game in their current road trip on Tuesday against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden in New York.<\/p>\n
