Los Angeles Lakers center Timofey Mozgov suffered multiple injuries after getting hit twice in the face during their game against the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday.

He received four stitches to close a gash on his lip and his left eye was nearly shut due to swelling. The 7-foot-1 Russian is waiting results on a CT Scan from Wednesday morning to determine if he suffered an orbital fracture.

Mozgov was at the receiving end of an inadvertent hit to his mouth by Jeff Teague with 9:44 left in the third period. He returned in the same quarter with 3:59 left but received another hit to the face, this time directly to his left eye. The 30-year-old was forced to leave the game and headed straight to the locker room.

His will not play Wednesday night against the Atlanta Hawks.

With Timofey Mozgov missing games because of the injury, Tarik Black is expected to start and take over the minutes at the center position, with rookie Ivica Zubac coming off the bench.
