Dancing with the Stars contestant Misty May-Treanor was injured on Friday, ABC confirmed to Usmagazine.com.
"Misty May-Treanor sustained an injury on Friday and received immediate medical attention," the network said in a statement. "Despite previous reports, she did not break her ankle."
The statement continued: "She is resting comfortably at home. Doctors will reevaluate her condition on Monday and determine the outcome of her participation on the show."
The Olympic gold-medalist, 33, is partnered with pro dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy.
Last week, DWTS judge Carrie Ann Inaba called their Pasa Doble a "most ambitious" routine for so early in the competition.
Judge Bruno Tonioli also had words of praise for the volleyball champ.
"I love your energy, I love what you put into it," he raved. "You forget the finesse - you put so much power [that] sometimes you stumble a little bit. But you do a good job."
