Melton will undergo ACL surgery and will miss the rest of the Warriors season, as reported by NBC Sports Bay Area.

Thirteen games into the 2024-24 NBA season, the Warriors will be without a key player moving forward.

Veteran guard De'Anthony Melton will undergo ACL surgery and miss the remainder of the season, the team announced Wednesday evening.

Melton missed the last two games after sustaining the injury during Golden State's 120-117 win over the Dallas Mavericks on Nov. 12.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr joined 95.7 The Game's "Willard & Dibs" on Tuesday and admitted his concern with the severity of the injury, adding that Melton was "seeking other options," but ultimately, surgery was the best decision for himself and the team.

Melton is scheduled for surgery in the "near future," per the team.
