Unicaja forward Tyson Perez to miss rest of 2026 after heel surgery
Unicaja forward Tyson Perez will undergo surgery on his left heel and won't return before 2027 after conservative treatment and an injection failed to help.
Unicaja forward Tyson Perez will have surgery on his left heel and will not return to the court before 2027. Conservative treatment and an injection failed to resolve the problem.
"I have a small bone tumour that has formed on the heel bone and is causing pain in my left leg. It is not a muscle problem that can be solved with training," Perez said.
The 30-year-old played 21 games in the Spanish league last season, averaging 7.6 points and 6.1 rebounds in 17 minutes.
