Elton Brand's first season in Philadelphia is coming to an abrupt ending.

Sources close to the situation told ESPN.com on Thursday afternoon that Brand will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery Monday after a failed attempt to play through the injury.

The Sixers' marquee summer signing has averaged a mere 5.7 points and 4.7 rebounds in less than 20 minutes per game in six outings since Dec. 17. He sat out 16 games after dislocating his shoulder in a home game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

The former All-Star, who turns 30 on March 11, managed to play nearly nine minutes in Tuesday's one-point loss to the Boston Celtics, sitting out the entire second half.

After an Achilles injury that limited him to eight games last season with the Clippers, Brand signed a five-year deal worth nearly $80 million with Philadelphia in July to end his six-season stay in Los Angeles.

Re: Source: Brand to have surgery

Great thing for the Sixers right now. The Sixers play much better ball when Brand isn't on the court. They are at their best when they can run teams up and down the court. Brand slows them down and they don't have a great Half Court offense. It is better for the Sixers for Brand to be out, at least at this point in the season. Brand still needs to mesh with the team for the Sixers to get better, so I hope to see the Sixers play better ball then they have with Brand.

Re: Source: Brand to have surgery

Honestly, who thought it would be a good idea for a running team to sign a player who cant run? Sixers should look to deal Brand for some role players and draft picks imo.
