Danilo Gallinari suffers torn meniscus while playing for Italian national team

Danilo Gallinari went down in the middle of Italy's World Cup qualifying contest against Georgia on Saturday with a left knee injury, which was initially feared to be a torn ACL. The new Celtics forward did not re-injure his surgically repaired ACL, but he will be on the shelf for a while.

Gallinari has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his left knee. The Italian national team also made a point to disclose Gallinari suffered no damage to his ACL or other ligaments in his left knee.


Gallinari previously missed the entire 2013-14 season because of ACL surgery. Since then, the forward has never appeared in more than 68 regular season games. And in those eight seasons since 13-14, he's only played in 60-plus games three times.
