This is a gigantic blow for the T’Wolves, who have actually been one of the best teams in the NBA in 2009. With Jefferson become a superstar down low and Randy Foye becoming a legitimate threat on the perimeter, the feature looked bright in Minnesota for the first time in a long while. Now, all that progress has been halted.

For fantasy basketball owners, losing Jefferson is a huge blow. His consistent effort was extremely valuable. In dynasty leagues, this serious injury hurts Jefferson’s stock as it isn’t guaranteed that he’ll fully recover.

As for players who will likely have to step up in Jefferson’s absence, look at Kevin Love, Ryan Gomes and Craig Smith, when he returns from injury.
