Clippers guard Bradley Beal will undergo season-ending surgery for a fractured left hip, the latest setback in his 13-year career, the Clippers announced Wednesday.
Beal, 32, suffered the injury during a recent game against the Phoenix Suns when he took a charge. He played the next two games and matched a season-high 12 points but was ruled out indefinitely Monday before the Clippers faced the Atlanta Hawks and was scheduled for further testing.
Beal was looking forward to a fresh start with the Clippers after agreeing to a buyout with the Suns, where he spent the past two seasons. His continuing health struggles forced him to the bench in favor of Ryan Dunn.
Beal was acquired after the Clippers sent Norman Powell to the Miami Heat in a three-team trade and was being counted on to complement veteran point guard James Harden.
In 2022, Beal had season-ending surgery on his left wrist while with the Washington Wizards, one of several injuries he encountered during 11 seasons in Washington.
In six appearances this season, the three-time All-Star was averaging 8.2 points and 1.7 rebounds, both career lows, as he was battling to regain his fitness after having a knee procedure in May and dealing with back soreness.
