NEW YORK -- Spencer Dinwiddie strained his right knee and will miss the remainder of the Brooklyn Nets' game against the Charlotte Hornets, the team said.
In the third quarter of Sunday's game, Dinwiddie drove against Bismack Biyombo and planted his right leg awkwardly. Dinwiddie was on the floor, grabbing his right knee for several seconds, before he limped to the sideline. He was evaluated on the Nets' bench for a few minutes before heading back to the locker room.
Dinwiddie exited the game with 11 points, shooting 4-of-10 from the field. Dinwiddie also had two rebounds.
Dinwiddie, who has started for Brooklyn in all three regular-season games this season, is averaging 7.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and three assists per game this season.
He was a key fixture for the Nets in the 2019-20 season. With Kyrie Irving and Caris LeVert missing stretches of the season with shoulder and thumb injuries, respectively, Dinwiddie led Brooklyn's starting unit. After going into the season expecting to be the Nets' sixth man, Dinwiddie started in 49 games and averaged 20.6 points.
The 27-year-old guard tested positive for COVID-19 in late June and did not join the Nets in the season restart in Orlando, Florida.
