"Oklahoma City Thunder All-NBA wing Jalen Williams underwent a follow-up procedure on his surgically repaired right wrist to remove a screw that was creating irritation during the final stages of his return-to-play process, the team announced Friday. He will be reevaluated in 10 to 14 days. The procedure was performed by Dr. Steven Shin at Cedars-Sinai Health in Los Angeles with Thunder medical personnel present."
"Shin performed the original operation in early July to repair a torn scapholunate ligament in Williams' shooting wrist, an injury that he played with during the Thunder's postseason championship run. Oklahoma City is off to a 6-0 start despite multiple injuries, including the absence of Williams, who averaged 21.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.6 steals per game last season."
