Celtics F Jeff Green will miss 2011-12 season

The Boston Celtics announced Saturday that forward Jeff Green will undergo surgery next month and will miss the entire 2011-12 season.

A routine physical administered after Green agreed to a one-year, $9 million contract with the Celtics last week detected an aortic aneurysm.

After consulting with leading cardiac specialists, the decision was made to completely repair Green’s condition, and doctors indicated to him that he should be able to resume his basketball career during the 2012-13 season.
