Jalen Williams Has Wrist Surgery; Thunder All-Star Expected Back For Start Of Season
Jalen Williams, the All-Star guard/forward who helped the Oklahoma City Thunder win their first NBA title, had surgery Tuesday to repair a torn ligament in his right wrist. The team said he will be re-evaluated in approximately 12 weeks. Thunder general manager Sam Presti said he expects Williams to be ready for the start of the regular season. Williams averaged 21.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5.1 assists, and 1.6 steals last season and was named to the All-NBA third team and the NBA All-Defensive second team. He was injured during the Thunder's 125–112 win over the Phoenix Suns on April 9 and played in all 23 postseason games while nursing the torn ligament. Williams averaged 23.6 points and 5.0 rebounds per game in the Finals against the Indiana Pacers, including a playoff career-high 40 points in a 120–109 win in Game 5. 'I really thought it was pretty impressive that he just kept moving along with no excuses and obviously played his best basketball down the stretch of the season,' Presti said. Dr. Steven Shin performed the procedure at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California.

Giants' Matt Chapman to start rehab for sprained hand in a week
LOS ANGELES (AP) — San Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman can begin rehabbing his sprained right hand in a week. He visited Dr. Steven Shin in Los Angeles on Friday and was told he has to wear his splint until then, the team announced. The Giants were in town to open a three-game series at Dodger Stadium. Chapman got hurt sliding into first base against Atlanta last Sunday. He went on the injured list two days later and is eligible to return on June 20. The 32-year-old infielder indicated he could be on a faster track. 'He's always going to be optimistic if you talk to him, so you got to temper that a little bit,' Giants manager Bob Melvin said, 'but the news we got from Dr. Shin was good news. He's very pleased with how it's recovering.' Melvin added that until Chapman starts rehabbing, it's tough to forecast a return date. Chapman was batting .243 with 12 home runs, 30 RBIs and seven stolen bases. The five-time Gold Glove winner signed a $151 million, six-year deal last year. ___ AP MLB:
