Gerald Henderson left Monday's loss by the Philadelphia 76ers against the Sacramento Kings due to intolerable left hip pain.
Henderson was pulled out of the game early in the fourth quarter when he was visibly laboring.
“I’ve just been in a bit of pain, man,” Henderson said “It actually hasn’t been feeling pretty good. I just pulled myself out. I felt some other guys could do better at the time. I wasn’t moving great at all.
“I was getting blown by on defense, and I really wanted to win the game. I told him to take me out.”
Henderson said soreness and stiffness are a result from his having two surgeries in that hip. Henderson initially had surgery to repair a torn labrum in the hip in May 2011 while with the Charlotte Bobcats. His second surgery in July 2015 was debridement arthroscopy surgery.
