SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Sacramento Kings forward Carl Landry had surgery to repair a torn ligament in his right wrist.

The Kings said Landry underwent the operation on Tuesday in New York and will miss approximately four to five months.

Landry dealt with a sore wrist this past season, missing five games in January. An initial evaluation indicated surgery was not necessary. But when the pain persisted in the off-season, Landry underwent an MRI that revealed that surgery was necessary.

Landry averaged 7.2 points and 3.8 rebounds per game this season.
