NBA: Thunder's D.J. White has jaw surgery

The Associated Press

OKLAHOMA CITY — Oklahoma City Thunder rookie D.J. White will be sidelined four six months while his jaw heals from surgery.

The team said Wednesday that doctors removed a benign growth this week.

The 6-foot-9 forward from Indiana will have another procedure in about six weeks in which a bone graft from his hip will be used to mend his jaw.
