Toronto Raptors rookie Ulrich Chomche will miss the rest of the season with a right knee injury, the team announced Wednesday.

The 19-year-old big man from Cameroon sustained a partial proximal MCL tear during a G League game last week.

He appeared in seven games for Toronto, posting totals of five points, eight rebounds and two assists in 32 minutes. Playing on a two-way contract, he averaged 7.1 points, 7.6 boards and 2.9 blocks in 33 games with affiliate Raptors 905.

Chomche was a second-round pick (57th overall) in the 2024 NBA Draft.
