Dwight Howard averaged 14.4 points and 14.4 rebounds during the 2015 Western Conference Finals, but the eight-time All-Star revealed Thursday he posted those numbers while playing with a torn MCL and torn meniscus, according to SportsRadio610's Mike Meltser.
Howard reportedly sprained his left knee in Houston's 110-106 Game 1 loss, but at the time, it wasn't believed that he suffered any structural damage.
"It's very sore, it started during the game," Howard said following Game 1, per ESPN.com's Calvin Watkins. "It's another test."
Prior to injuring his knee against the Golden State Warriors, Howard missed 41 games during the regular season because of knee pain.
