Metta World Peace Has a Torn Meniscus in His Left Knee


An MRI revealed that the left knee injury suffered by Metta World Peace on Monday night against the Golden State Warriors was more serious than just a strain — MWP has a torn meniscus. Uh-oh. Per the Los Angeles Lakers’ PR: “Results of the MRI showed a lateral meniscus tear. He will return to Los Angeles where he will be examined (Wednesday) by team doctor Steve Lombardo. An update, including a time table for his return, will be issued at the conclusion of his examination.”
