Magic Point Guard Jameer Nelson checked out at the 1:36 mark in the first period and went to the locker room. He was later diagnosed with a hyperextended left knee. It is the same knee that he had surgically repaired in November. Nelson’s return to the game is listed as questionable. Anthony Johnson checked in during the second quarter, replacing Jason Williams.
Update: Tania Ganguli has an update on Nelson from her twitter account.
Nelson came down on the knee wrong. Otis smith doesn’t expect nelson to miss any games but called him day to day.
