Orlando guard Mickael Pietrus could miss as much as a month of action after breaking his wrist.

"It's really tough," Pietrus said. "Somebody in the locker room said we need to get that black cat away from me."

Pietrus already had missed 10 games after sustaining a torn ligament in his right thumb. The latest injury was suffered following a dunk against the Pistons on Monday night.

"It's very unfortunate for Mickael. It's one of the harder falls I've seen," Coach Stan Van Gundy said. "We're sort of used to playing without him because he was just out for a long time. He was just starting to get his legs under him, and now he's out for a longer period of time."
