Scans have today confirmed that Phoenix forward Craig Moller has suffered a ruptured patella tendon in his right knee.
Moller suffered the injury in the first quarter against the New Zealand Breakers and took no further part in the game.
Moller will have surgery on Monday Night.
The injury rules Moller out for the remainder of the NBL24 season.
South East Melbourne Phoenix Head of Performance Eric Hollingsworth said it would be a loss for the side.
“Craig’s injury is devastating for both him and the club,” Hollingsworth said.
“Craig did a power of work to get back on court this season and his efforts in games have been incredibly important.
“We will wrap our arms around him and support him throughout his rehab period.”
