Serge Ibaka to undergo knee procedure

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Serge Ibaka will undergo a knee procedure to address some persistent soreness, according to sources.

Ibaka has missed the Thunder's past two games with what the team has called knee soreness. He will see a specialist for further evaluation, with the expectation for him to have a clean-out procedure in order to be ready for the postseason.

The Thunder have not confirmed that Ibaka will undergo the surgery, saying in a statement Monday that they have sent him to a specialist.
