Portland Trail Blazers reserve guard Blake Wesley sustained a fracture to the fifth metatarsal of his right foot during Portland’s 109-107 win over the Denver Nuggets, the organization announced on Sunday. His timeline for return will be determined at a later date.

Wesley, 22, injured the foot during the second quarter of Friday’s win at the Moda Center. He fell down as he converted on a midrange jumper at the 3:52 mark of the quarter and immediately grabbed his right foot, unable to get back on defense. The Blazers called a timeout on their next possession and subbed Wesley out. He didn’t return in the contest.

The injury is a tough blow for a player who had been stepping up in the absence of Blazers guard Scoot Henderson and thriving in Portland’s new pressure-heavy, fast-paced system.
