Martell Webster to undergo hip surgery, expected to miss 4-6 months

The hip injury that has kept Martell Webster from taking the floor for the Wizards so far this season will now likely cost him the entire season. After more than a month of trying alternative methods to avoid going under the knife, Webster has decided enough is enough and is opting for the surgery to repair his partially torn labrum, according to Jorge Castillo of the Washington Post:

"We tried everything else and I just wasn’t getting the results that I wanted," Webster said. "So I wanted to go out and get it taken care of rather than playing this season in some discomfort and then wait until the offseason to get it taken care of and then rehab the whole offseason and then try to find a rhythm come training camp.
