Danny Granger will miss a minimum of four to six weeks with a torn right plantar fascia. No surgery will be required and rehabilitation begins immediately. Granger sustained the injury during the third quarter of Saturday night’s game at the L.A. Clippers.
Granger has played in 17 games and is the Pacers leading scorer at 24.4 points per game. He also averages 6.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.59 steals and 1.0 blocks per game.
This is a huge blow to an Indiana team that has a 6-12 record and relies heavily on Granger. Their next leading scorer is Dahntay Jones (15.3 ppg, followed by Mike Dunleavy (12.2 ppg).
It’ll be tough to make up Granger’s scoring. There aren’t a lot of offensive weapons on the roster.
