Incoming junior forward DeVon Walker tore his ACL on Friday, sources told CBSSports.com. Walker will miss the entire 2014-15 season as he rehabs his injury. Walker's loss will impact the Gators on the defensive end as the lanky 6'6" wing player emerged as a trusty perimeter defender as the season progressed. Due to the news of his injury being recent, the details of how his injury occurred have not been made available. Walker averaged 2.4 points per game and 1.2 rebounds per game last season.
In other news, Patric Young signed a two-year deal with the New Orleans Pelicans after they signed him as an undrafted free agent. Both years are guaranteed. The 6'9", 240-pound big man has averaged 7.4 points per game and 8.0 rebounds per game in the NBA Summer League.
