Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Mar 25, 2014 6:41 pm

Ryan Anderson will miss the remainder of the season due to a herniated cervical disc.


Anderson consulted with a team of physicians and determined surgery was the best option.


Anderson will undergo surgery on April 8.


In 22 games this season, Anderson averaged 19.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 0.8 assists in 36.1 minutes per game for the New Orleans Pelicans.
