A 19-year-old collegiate football player sustains an injury to his left knee during a game. He was running with the ball when he dodged a defensive player and fell, twisting his left knee. He felt a “pop” as he fell. When he attempts to bear weight on his left knee, it feels unstable, and "gives way." He needs assistance to walk off the field. The pain is localized diffusely over the knee and is non-radiating. His past medical history is notable for asthma. He uses an albuterol inhaler as needed. He does not smoke or drink alcohol. On exam, he has a notable suprapatellar effusion. Range of motion is limited in the extremes of flexion. When the proximal tibia is pulled anteriorly while the knee is flexed and the patient is supine, there is 1.5 centimeter of anterior translation. The contralateral knee translates 0.5 centimeters with a similar force. The injured structure in this patient originates on which of the following bony landmarks?
