Wichita State’s Austin Reaves scheduled for shoulder surgery

Wichita State guard Austin Reaves will undergo surgery Wednesday to repair the torn labrum in his right shoulder.

“They’ll basically go in there and reattach or tighten up the labrum,” said Brian Reaves, his father. “Then he’ll have to go through the rehab and therapy to loosen it up and regain the range of motion.”

The right shoulder dislocated three times during the 2016-17 school year, sidelining him for various amounts of time.

He missed two games in late January and early February.

He missed a game in late November after dislocating the shoulder against Michigan State.
