Andrew Bogut has suffered a knee injury in his Dallas side's 119-101 loss to Charlotte in the NBA on Monday night.

The Boomers star went down late in the first quarter, with the Hornets taking advantage to come back from an 11-point, third-quarter deficit.

Bogut limped off the court with 45 seconds left in the first quarter after a collision on the defensive end. He grabbed his right knee immediately and was ruled out for the rest of the game.
