Golden State Warriors back-up centre Jermaine O'Neal is scheduled to undergo arthroscopic surgery on his right wrist.
The 35-year-old is currently in his 18th NBA season, and the Warriors have insisted that they will announce his timetable after the procedure.
The franchise said that O'Neal's latest operation "is to address a torn ligament in his right wrist," ESPN reports.
O'Neal is averaging 6.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 18.6 minutes so far this season after appearing in 17 games.
