Arroyo breaks nose against Knicks

Arroyo, who was acquired from Utah on January 21, was accidentally hit in the face by New York rookie Trevor Ariza, who also left the game with an injury.

The 25-year-old Arroyo will undergo surgery on Monday and is expected to wear a protective mask when he returns. He is considered doubtful for Detroit’s next two games on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Arroyo had four points in 11 minutes of Detroit’s rout.
