Draft prospect Cam Reddish is set to undergo a procedure for a core muscle injury, according to a report.

The Athletic’s Shams Charania reported on Friday that Reddish is expected to miss six weeks before being fully healthy.

Reddish formed part of Duke’s highly-touted recruiting class, along with Zion Williamson and RJ Barrett. He averaged 13.5 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game last season. His shooting was his biggest weakness as he only made 35.6 percent of his field goals and just 33.3 percent of his threes.

The Knicks, which are picking at No. 3, are said to have interest in Reddish, but they may try for one of his college teammates picking at that high spot.
