The injury comes as Korkmaz was set to join the Turkish national team for the FIBA window after missing Monaco's last two EuroLeague games. It's unclear how much time he'll miss, but he's not expected to return to the court until at least December.
The 27-year-old, who previously played for the Philadelphia 76ers, had already missed multiple games earlier in the season due to a right leg muscle injury.
So far this season, Korkmaz has averaged 6.0 points, 1.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals, and 5.5 PIR across two EuroLeague appearances.
