Iman Shumpert’s promising rookie season ended prematurely on Saturday when the Knicks’ starting shooting guard suffered a torn left ACL and meniscus in the second half of a 100-67 Game 1 loss to the Heat. The knee injury, which will require surgery, will sideline Shumpert for 6-to-8 months, the Knicks announced.
