Shaun Livingston Out 6-8 Weeks Following Toe Surgery

The Golden State Warriors announced Friday that guard Shaun Livingston will be sidelined for 6-8 weeks after undergoing arthroscopic surgery on the big toe of his right foot. Per the AP:

The Warriors said Friday that Livingston’s toe will be in a splint for the first three weeks of his recovery. The team says the procedure was performed Wednesday by Dr. Richard Ferkel at the Southern California Orthopedic Institute in Van Nuys.

 

Golden State signed Livingston to a three-year contract worth about $16 million in July. The team says he was diagnosed with a sprained right big toe at the time and his foot was placed in a cast. The Warriors say Livingston was re-evaluated last week and it was determined that surgery was needed.
