Golden State Warriors guard Jacob Evans suffered a concussion and a broken nose after being elbowed in the face during the second quarter of Tuesday night's 124-97 loss to the Dallas Mavericks, the team announced Thursday.
He is being placed in the league's concussion protocol and will wear a mask on his face until his nose injury heals.
Evans was plagued by injuries as a rookie last season. He suffered a rib contusion during the 2018 summer league, and he also went on to miss time in February due to left pelvis soreness, while a college finger injury lingered.
