Wizards guard Bradley Beal will undergo surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left wrist and will miss the rest of the season, the team announced on Tuesday.
The decision for Beal to undergo surgery came after discussion between the Wizards medical team and a re-evaluation by hand specialist Dr. Michele Carlson.
“Despite the last 10 days of getting intensive treatment and rehab on my wrist, it became clear that I would not be able to compete to my standards or to the level that our team and our fans deserve,” said Beal in the team's statement. “I’m disappointed to have my season end this way, but we all agreed that this was the best decision. I look forward to coming back at 100% and continuing to lead this team as we work together to build toward the future.”
