Gophers coach Richard Pitino and Co.’s 2016-17 campaign suffered a setback just one week into practice.

Gophers junior forward Davonte Fitzgerald, a transfer from Texas A&M, will miss the season after suffering a left knee injury during Thursday’s practice, the Gophers announced in a release.

Fitzgerald tore his anterior cruciate ligament, medial and lateral meniscus in what the Gophers said was a non-contact situation.

Fitzgerald sat out last season due to NCAA transfer rules. He averaged 3.5 points and 1.6 rebounds a game during his sophomore season at Texas A&M.

The 6-foot-8 forward figured to provide front-line depth for Minnesota this season, while also adding valuable three-point shooting.

“We are disappointed in the recent injury news as it pertains to Davonte,” Pitino said in a release. “He had worked extremely hard to get himself ready for the season. We are confident he will be back and ready to go next season.”

The Gophers “are exploring all waiver options” for Fitzgerald, according to a team spokesman.
