Charlotte Bobcats forward Adam Morrison suffered a left knee sprain with 5:23 left in the third quarter of Saturday night’s preseason contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. X-rays taken immediately following the game came back negative.

Sunday’s 9:00 a.m. MRI showed, however, a partial to complete tear of the ACL and Morrison could potentially face season-ending surgery. He flew back with team on Monday morning, to be further evaluated by Dr. Glenn Perry, the Bobcats team physician.

This is the second potential season ending knee injury for the Bobcats as they lost Sean May at the beginning of training camp.

The Bobcats open the season next Friday, November 2, as they host the Milwaukee Bucks.
