Turner stepped on a ball boy's foot during warmups and rolled his ankle.

The 26-year-old did not play for a single minute against the Washington Wizards in the Pacers' season opener.

"Turner's ankle sprain is not considered serious," Rick Carlisle said after the losing effort, via Scott Agness.

Myles Turner's last regular-season game played was on Jan. 14. That was nine months ago.
