Two days after the Wolves learned Corey Brewer’s out for the season, Mike Miller’s ankle twisted badly when he landed on Ryan Gomes’ foot while reaching for a rebound in tonight’s 100-89 loss at Orlando and he went down in a heap.

It was enough, Randy Foye said, to make his heart drop.

Helped off to the locker room eventually by Mark Madsen and Brian Cardinal, Miller limped back to the court after xrays taken at Amway Arena showed he didn’t break the ankle. He played another two minutes, but then Randy Wittman pulled him for the night.

It was a two-point game when Miller left a minute into the third quarter. It was 18 points shortly after he returned.

He will have an MRI done Thursday morning in Orlando. He said after the game that he won’t know just how bad the sprained ankle is or isn’t until that is done, or until he wakes up in the morning and see how swollen or stiff it might be.

Will update after practice on Thursday before the team flies to New Jersey for Friday’s game against the Nets.
