OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- Golden State Warriors swingman Kelenna Azubuike will undergo surgery to repair a torn patellar tendon in his left knee.

The team says the operation will be performed Wednesday in Phoenix. Azubuike is expected to miss the remainder of the season.

Azubuike injured his knee last Saturday in Milwaukee. He was averaging 13.9 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.1 assists in nine games this season.
