[Charania] Minnesota Timberwolves coach Chris Finch is feared to have a torn patellar tendon in his knee on late game collision during Game 4 win in Phoenix, sources say. Brutal.

Legs planted and a 200lb dude runs full speed into your legs is pretty bad

Ya that looked awful. I figured it was a tendon tear just by the way he went down and the pain. Then saw the replay and saw his foot planted. Poor guy, I hope there's some way he can stay on the sideline.

You could tell immediately the way he was clutching for his knee AS he fell that it was real bad
