Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Brandan Wright has undergone successful arthroscopic ankle surgery and is out indefinitely, the team announced Wednesday.
Wright, 29, underwent arthroscopic debridement of his left ankle Tuesday after non-surgical interventions failed to eliminate his posterior tibialis tendinopathy, the Grizzlies said in a news release.
There is currently no timetable for Wright’s return to the court, but he will begin rehabilitation in Memphis immediately.
The 6-foot-10, 230-pound Wright has been sidelined for all 10 of the team’s regular-season games this season. He last appeared in an Oct. 6 preseason game.
Wright missed 70 games with the Grizzlies last season, averaging 6.9 points and 3.6 rebounds.
