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.
