Wilson Chandler will have season-ending hip surgery, the Nuggets announced Wednesday evening.
The surgery is to repair a labral tear in his right hip that kept him out all season, the team said.
"To see him miss our entire season is devastating," Nuggets President Josh Kroenke said in a news release, "I know how badly he wants to be on the court helping his teammates."
Earlier Wednesday it was revealed that Chandler's rehab from a right hip strain was not progressing and there was no longer a firm timetable for his return.
