Missouri sophomore men’s basketball player Jontay Porter injured the ACL and MCL in his knee during a secret scrimmage Sunday against Southern Illinois, sources told The Star.
He is out for the season.
Porter tested the NBA Draft waters this spring but decided to return to school for his sophomore year. He participated in the Mizzou Madness preseason event Saturday and showed athleticism and quickness, dunking a ball in the 10-minute scrimmage.
The 6-foot-11 forward‘s family has a history of injuries. His oldest sister, Bri, suffered five ACL tears throughout her high school and college career before medically retiring at Missouri.
