Bradley needs second surgery

From Mark Murphy of the Herald:

The first phase of Avery Bradley’s shoulder issues may be complete, with the Celtics guard recovering from May 30 surgery on his left shoulder. The second phase — surgery on his right shoulder — is scheduled to begin “shortly,” according to a league source. Though not as serious as the condition of the left, which popped out of joint four times during the playoffs, the right shoulder was damaged in part as a result of Bradley attempting to compensate for the pain in his left.

The delay between surgeries is designed to ensure Bradley regains motion in his left shoulder before the right one goes under the knife.

The Celtics are hoping he’ll be ready for the start of training camp in early October, when the team is scheduled to play exhibition games in Istanbul and Milan.

But, for the third straight summer, Bradley will miss out on the opportunity to refine his game in summer league competition. Bradley missed the summer before his rookie season while recovering from ankle surgery, and last summer because of the NBA lockout.

This time he’ll miss an especially heavy summer of activity for the Celtics’ younger players. The team will send entries to both the Orlando and Las Vegas summer leagues in July.

My Notes: I thought it odd when Bradley was shown at game 5 vs Miami and he only had one arm in a sling.

Very perceptive Bob. Now I'd be worried if you were as attentive to a groin pull.

That's because Superman is an imaginary figure.
