Clippers Guard Bradley Beal Out for Season Following Hip Fracture Surgery

Los Angeles Clippers guard Bradley Beal will miss the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery to repair a fractured hip. The three-time All-Star, who played in only six games this season due to multiple injuries, is expected to make a full recovery in six to nine months. Beal averaged 8.2 points and 1.7 assists in his limited appearances. He signed an $11-million, two-year deal with the Clippers in July after his Phoenix Suns contract was bought out. This season, he also missed time with a left knee injury and lower back soreness. The 14-year veteran has not played at least 60 games in a season since 2020-21 and experienced injury-riddled seasons in Phoenix as well.
