Yanic Konan Niederhauser<\/a> tore a ligament in his right foot, putting an early end to his rookie season with the Clippers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 7-foot Swiss center was injured Wednesday night in a 130-107 win<\/a> against the Indiana Pacers. Niederhauser was diagnosed with a Lisfranc injury in his right foot and will require surgery, the team said. The injury involves damage to the ligaments or bones in the middle of the foot.<\/p>\n

Niederhauser averaged 4.3 points and 2.9 rebounds in 41 games. After being selected 30th<\/a> in last year\u2019s NBA draft, he began the season in the G League, but after the Clippers traded Ivica Zubac<\/a> last month, he was earning more minutes.<\/p>\n

In his last five games, Niederhauser was shooting 52% from the field and averaging 8.2 points and 6.2 rebounds while playing 18 minutes a game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Yanic Konan Niederhauser tore a ligament in his right foot, putting an early end to his rookie season…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":644343,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3789],"tags":[7,83669,559,6627,142,126,4034,192,4032,2954,83667,49559,251,135,4033,4031,25299,83668,6,15452,65,3039,3161,83666,2084],"class_list":{"0":"post-644342","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles-clippers","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-bone","10":"tag-clippers","11":"tag-damage","12":"tag-game","13":"tag-indiana-pacers","14":"tag-la","15":"tag-la-clippers","16":"tag-laclippers","17":"tag-last-year","18":"tag-ligament","19":"tag-lisfranc-injury","20":"tag-los-angeles","21":"tag-los-angeles-clippers","22":"tag-losangeles","23":"tag-losangelesclippers","24":"tag-middle","25":"tag-more-minute","26":"tag-nba","27":"tag-niederhauser","28":"tag-point","29":"tag-rebound","30":"tag-rest","31":"tag-right-foot","32":"tag-season"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116185293374504972","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/644342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=644342"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/644342\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/644343"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=644342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=644342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=644342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
