An MRI exam on Monday revealed the injury.

Young suffered the injury when he stepped on an official's foot late in the third quarter of Sunday night's 113-102 loss.

Young had made a pass near the 3-point line and took a step back when he inadvertently got too close to the official. Young sat on the court for a few moments before hobbling to the locker room with 29.3 seconds left in the third quarter, having scored 32 points.

He returned to the court with 8:44 left in the fourth quarter but wasn't able to regain his effectiveness, hitting only one 3-pointer the rest of the way.

Young finished with 35 points and is averaging 32.7 points to go with 6.0 assists in the first three games against the Bucks. He is averaging 29.8 points and 9.5 assists per game so far this postseason.

The Bucks lead the series 2-1.
