The last 42.9 seconds of the game were canceled as medical personnel tended to Smith, who scored 27 points as the Blazers lost to the Houston Rockets 99-88.

Smith, the 21st overall pick in the 2011 draft out of Duke, played in 44 games last season as a rookie. His father, of course, is the late Derek Smith, a member of Louisville's 1980 national championship team who played nine seasons in the NBA.

UPDATE: Here's a more detailed description of Smith's injury from Ben Golliver of BlazersEdge.com, including confirmation that Smith was taken to a hospital.

The Blazers' official feed later said that Smith suffered a concussion:
