Kevon Looney's run in this year's NBA Finals may be over.

The Golden State Warriors forward was diagnosed with a non-displaced first costal cartilage fracture on Monday and will be out indefinitely, the team announced.

There reportedly isn't much optimism within the organization that Looney will return this season, though he may be evaluated further, league sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

The 23-year-old suffered the injury on an awkward fall during the first half of Game 2 on Sunday after Toronto Raptors superstar Kawhi Leonard plowed into him on a drive to the basket.

Looney finished with a rebound and three personal fouls in 10 minutes of action.

Elsewhere on the Warriors' injury report, Klay Thompson is listed as questionable for Game 3 with a mild hamstring strain, while Kevin Durant remains out with a calf strain.

The series is locked at 1-1 with Game 3 taking place at Oracle Arena on Wednesday.
