That's the look of crushed hopes for Minnesota fans and millions of blown dollars for the executives. Apparently, it's not the look of a broken ankle; it was originally diagnosed as a sprain.

Rubio suffered the horrendous injury during Friday's game against the Magic. He had to be carried off the court and was later seen in crutches. From the looks of that picture, he may not be seen on court for a while.
