Phoenix Suns guard Ricky Rubio was forced to exit the game against the Los Angeles Lakers, due to a hip injury.

Rubio slipped on a wet spot on the floor in the middle of the fourth quarter and left the game. He did not return and it is still uncertain whether he will miss any of the Suns’ coming games.

Rubio finished the game with nine points, one 3-pointer, five rebounds, nine assists, and a steal. The Lakers (27-7) earned the 117-107 victory over the Suns (13-21).
