Dwyane Wade needs surgery on his left knee and will miss the Olympics in London, according to the Associated Press.

The Miami Heat All-Star guard, who led the U.S. men’s basketball team in scoring during its run to an Olympic gold medal in 2008, told AP he called USA Basketball Chairman Jerry Colangelo and coach Mike Krzyzewski today to let them know that he isn’t healthy enough to play in the games, which open July 27. Wade is in the process of scheduling the surgery.
