Rachel Nichols of ESPN also Tweeted more about what happened.

Kyrie was in significant pain while talking to the training staff - twice he asked them to stop touching his ankle until he could take the pressure, and when they first tried to help him up, he asked them to stop due to pain. He's back in the locker room now.
