De’Anthony Melton will miss several weeks of competition. The new Golden State Warriors player suffered a sprained anterior cruciate ligament. “Fortunately”, it’s not a break and his season is not doomed!
The Golden State Warriors have not been plagued with injuries for several seasons and this time, it is one of their new recruits who will be squatting in the infirmary for a while.
De’Anthony Melton was injured during the game against the Dallas Mavericks. He suffered from a sprain of the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee. The announcement of his injury was made by Shams Charania, the ESPN journalist!

There are several grades to this injury and we do not yet know which one the rear suffers. If it’s a grade 1 sprain, he should miss between two and four weeks while if it’s grade 2, his rehabilitation will certainly take between four and 12 weeks.
In any case, barring poor recovery, the Warriors will be able to count on De’Anthony Melton again during the season. Good news since the player was gradually establishing himself in the rotation and had just had his first two starts!
