PHOENIX (AP) — San Antonio Spurs rookie Dylan Harper left Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns because of a left calf injury.

The 6-foot-6 guard was playing defense against Phoenix Suns center Nick Richards when he tried to jump around him to deflect an incoming pass midway through the second quarter. He immediately started limping and eventually left the game.

The No. 2 overall pick out of Rutgers played well over the first five games of his NBA career, averaging 14.4 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.6 assists. He finished Sunday's game with 12 points on 5 of 8 shooting over 11 minutes.

The Suns won 130-118, handing the Spurs their first loss of the season.
