Wolves guard Martell Webster out indefinitely following back surgery

Martell Webster is out indefinitely because of more trouble with his back.

The Minnesota Timberwolves announced on Friday the veteran guard is recovering from microdiscectomy surgery he underwent on Sept. 28.

Webster, who turned 25 this week, was undergoing evaluation by the Wolves medical staff, the team said.

Acquired in a draft-night trade from Portland in June 2010, Webster played in only 46 games with the Wolves last season, averaging 9.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game.
