New York Knicks star Kristaps Porzingis left Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets after experiencing knee soreness, the team announced.
Porzingis landed awkwardly on a seemingly innocent play in the second half and left the game shortly thereafter. He challenged a shot at the rim by Nets forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson but came up limping despite minimal contact on the play.
The Latvian forward finished with 13 points and four assists in 18 minutes of play.
