The Associated Press reports that Washington Wizards rookie forward Jared Jeffries will miss the remainder of the season with a torn ACL in his right knee.
Jeffries, who averaged 4.0 points, 2.9 rebounds and 14.9 minutes per game, suffered the injury during Sunday's practice in Dallas prior to the Wizards' game against the Mavericks on Monday.
Upon returning to Washington, Jeffries had an MRI and consulted with team physician Dr. Steve Haas, who recommended surgery. However, the former Indiana star will seek a second opinion before scheduling the surgery.
