Grizzlies' center Darko Milicic tried to give his teammates the inside presence they've become accustomed to this season.

His knee wouldn't allow him.

Milicic left the Grizzlies' 132-124 overtime loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday night with a sore right knee. He went to the bench for good late in the second period and didn't return.

Milicic will undergo an MRI exam today to determine the seriousness of his condition.

The 7-footer said he aggravated the injury while shooting before the game.

"I hit my knee a couple games before," Milicic said, "but I was able to play. ... Before the game, I was trying to bend down for the ball and could here it popping. The doctors said it wasn't serious, but it felt weak. It's weird. It wasn't that strong."
