New York Knicks center Marcus Camby reinjured his left foot Thursday night in an 81-76 loss to the Indiana Pacers.
Camby, who was sidelined for a month with plantar fasciitis in his left foot, left the arena in a walking boot and using crutches, the New York Post reported.
He was scheduled for an MRI on Friday.
Camby had returned to the court on Christmas Day and started the Knicks’ last four games. He had been receiving cortisone shots for the pain.
The injury flared up in the third quarter of Thursday’s game when he landed awkwardly on a drive to the basket.
“I did something to my foot again like I did earlier in the year,” Camby said, according to the Post. “I’ll be re-evaluated by our doctors. I drove and laid it in and felt a sharp pain in the bottom of my foot similar to before.
“I feel in my heart I’ll be back soon.”
With Rasheed Wallace also sidelined while nursing a sore left foot, the Post reported that the Knicks are interested in signing Kenyon Martin, but they would need to make room on the roster for him.
