Baylor big man has surgery to repair multiple knee ligaments
Baylor big man Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua had surgery Tuesday to repair multiple ligaments in his left knee from a gruesome injury that ended his season for the seventh-ranked and reigning national champion Bears. Tchamwa Tchatchoua, the junior forward known as ”Everyday Jon” for his consistent high-energy approach in games and practices, got hurt without any contact in the first half of Baylor’s 80-63 win over No. 20 Texas on Saturday. The 6-foot-8, 245-pound Cameroon-born player was going down the court after a missed shot by the Bears when his left leg turned awkwardly and he crumbled to the floor in obvious pain.
