Wolves' Madsen To Miss Three Months

Timberwolves forward Mark Madsen had successful surgery today to repair his right shoulder and pectoral muscle, and he is expected to be out three months, the team announced.

The injury occurred when Madsen had an accident on a jet ski on Monday, a team spokesman said.

"This was an unfortunate accident that I have put behind me," Madsen said in a statement. "My focus now is to concentrate on my rehabilitation with the goal of returning to the basketball court as quickly as possible."

Madsen is entering his fifth season with the team and is expected to provide depth as a reserve power forward/center.
