Oklahoma City Thunder All-NBA wing Jalen Williams underwent a follow-up procedure on his surgically repaired right wrist to remove a screw that was creating irritation during the final stages of his return-to-play process, the team announced Friday.

He will be reevaluated in 10 to 14 days.

The procedure was performed by Dr. Steven Shin at Cedars-Sinai Health in Los Angeles with Thunder medical personnel present.
