Philadelphia 76ers guard Eric Gordon will be re-evaluated in about three months after undergoing successful arthroscopic surgery on his right wrist yesterday, Sixers say.
The Sixers announced that after consulting several specialists, Eric Gordon will be undergoing surgery on Wednesday on his right wrist and will be out indefinitely. Per Sixers, following consultations with several specialists, Eric Gordon will undergo surgery on his right wrist tomorrow. Further updates will be provided as appropriate.
Meanwhile, Guerschon Yabusele suffered contact to both eyes in the Sixers' horrid blowout loss to the Chicago Bulls, which ruled him out for much of the second half. Sixers head coach Nick Nurse said after the game that Yabusele had suffered a corneal abrasion in one eye and had swelling around the other.
Will Joel Embiid suit up on Monday after his rough showing on Saturday? Sixers head coach Nick Nurse is unsure.
The Philadelphia 76ers have dealt with an onslaught of injuries throughout the 2024-25 NBA season. While the Joel Embiid injury saga continues, Eric Gordon and Guerschon Yabusele are also dealing with tricky injuries.
Eric Gordon, the 76ers sharpshooter, will undergo surgery to repair his sprained right wrist, the team said Tuesday. The shooting guard missed the last five games with the injury. He is slated for surgery on Wednesday.
