Blazers Guard Shaedon Sharpe to Miss Summer League with Shoulder Injury

Portland Trail Blazers guard Shaedon Sharpe will miss the remainder of NBA Summer League, 2022 with a shoulder injury. The Blazers announced the news today, in advance of their second game of the Summer League tournament. The injury is described as a “small labral tear” in his left shoulder. He is expected to be reevaluated in 10-14 days and will miss the rest of the proceedings in Las Vegas.

The labrum is the cartilage that reinforces ball-and-socket joints in the body, such as hips and shoulders.

Sharpe was the 7th overall pick of the 2022 NBA Draft, selected by the Blazers because of his athleticism and scoring ability.
