Rutgers starting forward Mawot Mag is done for the season after tearing the ACL in his right knee.
Mag suffered the injury in Saturday’s win over Michigan State.
“We’re going to miss Mawot greatly,” Rutgers coach Steve Pikiell said in a statement. “He’s a high-energy player, a veteran presence and the ultimate glue-guy. He’s one of our best team defenders and one of our best offensive rebounders. There’s not a better person in our program and we can’t wait to see him back on the floor in front of Rutgers Nation.”
Mag, a junior, started every game this season, averaging 7.8 points and 5.3 rebounds per game in 24.7 minutes. He averages 4.5 points per game in 63 career games (25 starts) for Rutgers.
The Scarlet Knights (16-7, 8-4 Big Ten), who entered Tuesday in second place in the Big Ten, play at No. 18 Indiana on Tuesday night.
