Pitt graduate guard Damian Dunn fractured his elbow in Saturday’s loss to North Carolina, according to Pitt head coach Jeff Capel. Dunn missed seven games earlier in the season due to separate injuries but has started four of the last eight games for the Panthers.

Dunn attempted a shot in the second half of Pitt’s loss but when he hit the floor, he did not get back up. In what could be his last game as a Panther, Dunn logged 30 minutes and finished with 6 points as he made all four of his free throw attempts.

Overall this season, Dunn appeared in 15 games and averaged 10.2 points per game, 2.5 rebounds per game and 1.7 assists per game. Dunn scored 23 points in the Panthers’ win over West Virginia and a season-high 24 points in the loss to Wake Forest.
