West Virginia senior guard Tucker DeVries will have surgery to repair an upper-body injury and miss the remainder of the season.His father, head coach Darian DeVries, announced the news on Tuesday. ESPN reported that the younger DeVries is nursing a shoulder injury.”Since early December, we have consulted with our team doctors and numerous medical professionals to evaluate and treat Tucker’s injury,” the elder DeVries said. “Tucker did everything he could to get back on the court this season, but unfortunately it has been determined by all parties involved that surgery is necessary. He will be out of action for approximately three months.”We will apply for a medical redshirt and certainly look forward for Tucker to come back healthy for his final year. As I’ve said before, we have a great bunch of guys in the locker room who have rallied around him during his absence. I have complete confidence in our team that they will continue to do so.”
