Missouri’s Jontay Porter underwent a second knee surgery on Tuesday after re-tearing the knee ligament he first tore last fall. Porter confirmed the surgery on social media Wednesday and admitted he returned to the basketball court before he was medically cleared to play.
"In all honesty, I was impatient and completely naïve to think I was ready to get back on the court and play before I was cleared to (play). Word to the wise — never disobey doctor’s orders! I know I won’t make that mistake twice and will be back better than ever.”
Porter has not indicated his plans for this summer’s NBA draft.
