Spurs starting point guard Dejounte Murray suffered a torn ACL in Sunday's preseason loss to the Rockets, the team announced Monday.
In the second quarter, Murray dropped to the ground after planting to jump toward the basket while driving on a fast break. He was able to walk off the court on his own power, but an MRI confirmed ligament damage in his right knee.
The team says there is no timeline yet for Murray's return, but he will likely miss the entire 2018-19 season.
Last season, Murray took over as the starting point guard, replacing Tony Parker, who left San Antonio for the Hornets in free agency this offseason.
