Washington Wizards forward Alan Anderson had a small bone fragment removed from his left ankle on Tuesday.

Anderson had undergone left ankle surgery in May to remove spurs but was bothered by a fragment that remained and caused irritation.

It’s undetermined how long Anderson’s recovery will take, but rehab is scheduled to begin immediately. The procedure was performed by Dr. David Porter at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis.
