Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal will miss the rest of the season because of surgery needed on his left wrist, his agent told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on Tuesday.
The Wizards earlier this month said Beal was diagnosed with an injury to the scapholunate ligament and would be reevaluated in one week. That process revealed the need for surgery, Beal's agent, Mark Bartelstein of Priority Sports, confirmed to ESPN.
Beal suffered the injury in the third quarter of the Wizards' 115-95 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies last month.
Beal, a three-time All-Star, leads the Wizards with averages of 23.
