Mandatory Credit: Brad Penner-Imagn Images New York Knicks guard Miles "Deuce" McBride is slated to undergo core muscle surgery on Friday and could be out until the playoffs, The Athletic reported.
McBride reportedly underwent an MRI exam last week to determine the severity.
It's not known when the injury occurred. McBride has missed the past five games with the team citing "left ankle injury management" as the reason for those absences.
The Knicks took a step to plug the loss on Thursday by acquiring point guard Jose Alvarado from the New Orleans Pelicans before the trade deadline. The fifth-year pro and New York native has career averages of 8.1 points, 3.1 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 20.3 minutes in 268 regular-season games (34 starts) over five seasons with the Pelicans.
McBride, 25, is averaging a career-best 12.9 points in 35 games (14 starts). He has made a career-high 42.0% of his 3-point attempts and has a total of 102 treys, just 13 shy of his career high.
In five NBA seasons with New York, McBride is averaging 7.1 points in 271 games (42 starts).
