PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) – Portland Trail Blazers forward Jeff Pendergraph will have surgery to repair a torn ligament in his right knee.
Pendergraph was injured Thursday night in a preseason game against the Utah Jazz. An MRI on Friday showed he tore his anterior cruciate ligament.
A timetable for his return was not set by the Blazers, but Pendergraph used Twitter to tell fans he was done for the season.
Pendergraph averaged 2.7 points and 2.5 rebounds in 39 games, including four starts, as a rookie last season.
The Blazers said the surgery would occur in the next few days.
