Kristaps Porzingis landed awkwardly after a dunk and was immediately taken to the locker room. The MRI confirmed the worst as the Lativan star will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL.

While no timeline was provided, the injury typically requires 12 months of recovery, which means the young star will most likely be out until well into the 2018-19 season.

The “Unicorn” was enjoying a career-year including eleven 30-point games and got his first all-star selection.
