Mandatory Credit: Lucas Peltier-USA TODAY Sports Atlanta Hawks rookie forward Nikola Durisic is recovering from surgery to repair his fractured left foot, the team announced on Wednesday.
The 2024 second-round pick underwent a procedure Monday to repair his left fifth metatarsal bone with Dr. Robert Anderson in Charlotte, N.C.
Durisic sustained the injury in a Summer League game against San Antonio on July 14 in Las Vegas. The Hawks will update his status in November.
The 20-year-old Belgium international was selected by the Miami Heat with the No. 43 overall pick last month and traded to Atlanta on draft night.
