This one might be harder to watch than Gordon Hayward's.

Suns guard Isaiah Canaan suffered a terrible leg injury on Wednesday night against the Mavericks.

As he was driving to the rim with just seconds left in the first quarter, Canaan made contact in the air with Mavericks forwardWesley Matthews.

Canaan fell hard and awkwardly to the ground, with his left ankle taking the impact.

As he was laying on the court moments later, the ankle was turned almost completely around.

Matthews immediately covered his hands in shock.

Several Suns players looked away from the court in horror as Canaan was being helped.

He was wheeled off the court shortly thereafter and the Suns later announced Canaan fractured his left ankle.
