“(Donte) is still a very valuable member of this team, whose leadership will continue to power this team moving forward. I’m confident he will attack this setback the right way and come back stronger than ever from this injury. He certainly has an exceptionally bright future in basketball.”
Grantham was averaging 14.2 points and 6.9 rebounds per game.
