The Indiana Pacers will play their first game of the season against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night in Michigan.

James Wiseman, who signed with the team during the offseason, scored six points and one rebound in five minutes of play while shooting 2/4 from the field.

However, Wiseman was injured in the first half.

About the Indiana Pacers: “Injury update: James Wiseman (left calf) will not return to game tonight.”

Many fans reacted to the news.

Mark Jones: “James Wiseman scored a quick 6 points for @Pacers in the first quarter. Great touch around the basket.”

Looks very comfortable. But I just got hurt. Injury without physical contact when stepping back, grabbing the back of the foot. I don't want to say it.

The child cannot take a break. 🙏🏽”

Keith Smith: “Oh man. James Wiseman fell to the ground with no one around him and looked back as if he had been kicked. That’s always the worst thing you can see.”

@iPacersblog: “Yeah, a non-contact left calf injury doesn’t sound good. Too bad. I hope he’s okay.”

@salaminsawall: “Oh no. James Wiseman just can't catch a break”

@soytitmilk: “James Wiseman looked really good tonight before the injury. I hope this isn’t a long break 🙏”

@_generalprince: “That was probably a joke. Prayers for James Wiseman 🙏🏾🙏🏾”

Wiseman finished last season averaging 7.1 points and 5.3 rebounds per game while shooting 61.3% from the field in 63 games for the Detroit Pistons.

After the Pistons, the Pacers play their next game on Friday evening when they host the Cleveland Cavaliers in Indianapolis.
