Golden State Warriors reserve swingman Brandon Rush will miss the remainder of the NBA season after suffering a left knee injury, according to the team.
The Warriors, who made the announcement at Los Angeles ahead of a game against the Clippers, said no surgery date has been decided but that Rush is expected to make a full recovery.
Rush tore his left anterior cruciate knee ligament in the first quarter of a 104-94 loss to Memphis after he jumped for a layup and came down awkwardly on his knee.
In two games with the Warriors over the first five days of the season, Rush averaged seven points a game. Last season, he averaged a career-best 9.8 points and sank 45.2 percent of his 3-point shots over 65 games for Golden State.
