Adam Sandler may wish he stuck to being "The Waterboy."

The 41-year-old actor broke his ankle over the weekend while playing basketball — but still won the game — according to a statement sent to The Associated Press from Sandler's representative.

Sandler, who starred in "Happy Gilmore" and "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry," is currently shooting Walt Disney Pictures' "Bedtime Stories." In the film, due out later this year, Sandler plays as a hotel handyman whose bedtime stories magically come true. The statement said the injury will not affect production.
