Oklahoma City Thunder center Chet Holmgren will miss eight to 10 weeks after undergoing biological treatment for a small tear in his right patellar tendon.
Holmgren reported mild discomfort following a match against the Los Angeles Clippers on October 25, leading to specialist consultations and successful treatment on Friday.
His absence compounds injury concerns for the Thunder, who are already missing regular starters Jalen Williams and Cason Wallace.
