Wizards Suffer Another Injury; Haywood Will Need Surgery On Wrist

Posted by Jeff Sack under NBA Injuries 

The “Associated Press” reported Wednesday that Washington Wizards center Brendan Haywood will need surgery on his right wrist, to repair a torn ligament. There has been no speculation at how much time that he will miss. Haywood is coming off his strongest season in the Association, having averaged 10.6 points, 7.2 boards per game last season. Wizards coach Eddie Jordan anticipates the surgery to take place in about a week. He told reporters that the loss of Haywood leaves a huge void in the middle for the Wizards. Jordan said “It’s a huge blow. A huge blow. He’s coming off a career year, and he anchored our defense really well last year. Very vocal. So, you miss that.”
