CHARLOTTE, NC (WCCB Charlotte) — According to a report, Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist will miss the remainder of the season with a torn labrum.
A Yahoo Sports NBA writer tweeted:
“Sources: After suffering another torn labrum, Charlotte’s Michael Kidd-Gilchrist will undergo shoulder surgery. He will miss rest of season.”
Kidd-Gilchrist initially tore his labrum in a preseason game but returned, earlier than many expected, on January 29. The Hornets went 5-2 in seven games with MKG before he was injured again. Kidd-Gilchrist averaged 12.7 points per game and 6.4 rebounds per game this season.
