An MRI revealed today that Hornets forward David West has a torn ACL in his left knee. He is out for the season and the timetable for his return will be announced at a later date.
The injury occured with 22.5 seconds left in the 4th quarter of last night’s OT win in Utah. He did not return to the game.
“Obviously we are very saddened by this news,” Hornets General Manager Dell Demps said. “David is the ultimate warrior and competitor, but an even better person and we know that he will bounce back in time.”
West has appeared in 70 games this season, averaging a team-high 18.9 points and 7.6 rebounds.
