Toney Douglas had arthroscopic right shoulder surgery on Wednesday to repair a torn labrum and is expected to miss 3-4 months.
Douglas battled through a vague shoulder injury during the latter part of the season and the playoffs, but the team hadn't indicated that it was serious enough to require surgery. Now we know he had a serious ailment. Douglas projects as Chauncey Billups' backup next season, but he'll see plenty of action as the veteran continues to break down.
