Kentucky's Top Freshman Done for Year with Knee Injury

The player some had ranked as the #1 pick in the next NBA draft is out for the rest of the year with a knee injury.

ESPN reports University of Kentucky freshman Nerlens Noel tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his left knee in last night's loss at Florida.

The 6'10'' center was averaging 10 points, 10 rebounds, and over four blocks a game before the injury.
