Johnny Furphy Suffers Season-Ending Torn ACL in Right Knee

Indiana Pacers forward Johnny Furphy was diagnosed with a torn right ACL on Monday and will miss the remainder of the season. The second-year player's absence could extend through the beginning of the 2026-27 season. Prior to the injury, Furphy started in 21 of 35 regular-season appearances, posting averages of 5.1 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 0.7 three-pointers in 18.4 minutes per contest. The Pacers will now likely lean more on Ben Sheppard, Kam Jones, and Quenton Jackson.
