Sad news for Jabari and the Bucks.

The Milwaukee Bucks received awful news about Jabari Parker today.

An MRI today revealed that Jabari tore the ACL in his left knee on a non-contact injury during Milwaukee's loss to the Heat last night, and will require season ending surgery. According to reports, the rehabilitation process will take approximately 12 months. 

This is the same ACL that he tore during his rookie season.

The 21-year old, now in his third year, was averaging a career-best 20.1 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game so far this season.

Despite Jabari's numbers, the Bucks have struggled especially as of late, losing eight of their last 10 and sliding to a 22-29 record which puts them out of the playoff picture even in the lowly Eastern Conference.
