Former Oklahoma forward Jalon Moore sustained a torn achilles tendon in a pre-draft workout in San Antonio, agent Mike Silverman tells Jonathan Givony of ESPN (All Twitter links).
Moore had successful surgery the day after he suffered the injury and is expected to make a full recovery, per Givony.
“We’re truly heartbroken for Jalon,” Silverman said. “It’s time to revamp the NBA pre-draft process. Flying around the country to perform intense competitive workouts exposes players to risk of major injuries. No other pro sports league puts their draft prospects in this position.”
