During last Sunday's night game against the Toronto Raptors, Charlotte Hornets guard Michael Carter-Williams suffered an injury but still continued to play on it. The injury occurred with about four minutes left in the second quarter of the game on March 4. Unfortunately, it ended up being more serious than expected. He missed the following two games and will now miss the rest of the season.

According to ESPN Senior NBA Insider Adrian Wojnarowski, Williams will miss the rest of the season with a labral tear in his left shoulder. The surgery should be coming soon.

The 26-year-old player will finish the year off averaging just 4.6 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 2.2 steals per game in his 16 minutes per game average. Williams was Kemba Walker's backup for most of the season as he struggled with his shot selection all season long.

Williams would finish with a career-low of 33.2 percent from the field as his minutes slowly started to decrease during the final two weeks leading up to his season-ending injury. With Williams now off the court for the season, Malik Monk will be the next man up for the Hornets.

Depending on Monk's finish on the season, it will be interesting to see if the Hornets will keep Carter-Williams for the near future. He’s on a one-year deal with the Hornets, which could lead to an interesting summer for Williams. The guard must get his shooting percentage up if any team wants to take a look at him. Carter-Williams' career in the NBA has not hit a strong point yet as he is averaging 11.5 points and 4.7 rebounds in his 287 career games.
