Montrezl Harrell will have gone from laughter to tears in the space of two weeks. Extended for one season and just under $3 million on July 17, the former NBA’s best sixth man found himself on the flank and possibly for quite a while two weeks later.
The results of his MRI taken on Wednesday following a swelling of his right knee were final: according to The AthleticMontrezl Harrell suffers from tears of the anterior cruciate ligament and a meniscus, an injury sustained during summer training.
It’s a big blow for the 29-year-old who had only been extended for a year and who will probably have to go through a long convalescence. It takes 9 to 12 months of absence after the operation, and it is not certain that we will see him next season.
For Philly, it remains a lesser evil since the Pennsylvania franchise has shielded its rotation at position 5 behind Joel Embiid with Mo Bamba and Paul Reed, who finally remained despite the Jazz offer.
