After suffering another torn labrum, Charlotte Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist will undergo shoulder surgery and will miss the remainder of the season, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
Kidd-Gilchrist re-injured the shoulder Feb. 10 in a win over the Indiana Pacers after aggressively rehabbing from October shoulder surgery to return much sooner than expected.
The Hornets' best defensive wing presence, Kidd-Gilchrist played just seven games this season, averaging 12.7 points and 6.4 rebounds.
Kidd-Gilchrist, 22, signed a four-year, $52 million contract extension in September.
