According to a police report of the incident obtained by ESPN, Bunce was then transported by ambulance to a hospital where he underwent emergency surgery. Patterson didn’t provide details of that surgery or offer a timeline for the 20-year-old’s return, however he didn’t seem optimistic.
“I don’t think he’ll be able to play the rest of the year,” Patterson said, via the Dallas Morning News. “Sometimes you have luck and sometimes you have no luck at all.”
Police cited the driver of the car with failure to yield, according to ESPN.
“(The other driver) did not see (Bunce) and turned into (him), knocking the driver off,” the police report read, via ESPN. “(Bunce) had the right of way.”
