Golden State Warriors center DeMarcus Cousins has a torn left quadriceps, is out for an indefinite period and will begin rehabilitation immediately, the team said Tuesday.
An MRI on Tuesday morning confirmed the tear, the team said. The team said it would provide updates on Cousins "as appropriate."
Cousins' noncontact injury occurred while he was pursuing a loose ball with 8:30 remaining in the first quarter of Monday's 135-131 loss to the LA Clippers in Game 2 of their playoff series.
He knocked away a pass from Clippers forward Danilo Gallinari.
