Pacers rookie forward Kendall Brown underwent a surgical procedure to address a right tibia stress fracture on Monday, according to a team press release.
Brown will be out indefinitely and is expected to make a full recovery, the team adds.
Brown missed six weeks of action earlier this season due to the injury, but he continued to experience discomfort.
A second-round pick, Brown is one of the team’s two-way players. He’s appeared in six games with the Pacers. He also played 10 games for the G League Fort Wayne Ants, averaging 9.6 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 23.8 minutes.
The 19-year-old spent his first and only college season at Baylor in 2021/22, averaging 9.7 PPG, 4.9 RPG, and 1.9 APG on .584/.341/.689 shooting in 34 games (27.0 MPG) for the Bears.
