"TORONTO -- Raptors forward Landry Fields will be sidelined for several weeks after having surgery on his right wrist.
The Raptors said it was a "minor surgical procedure" to an issue with the ulnar nerve in his hand. Fields underwent ulnar nerve transposition surgery in November 2012 to alleviate nerve compression in his right elbow."

All kidding aside, it would be great if he showed any level of recovery at all.

We do know that Fields was in great pain last season, to the point where he just had to get an operation. I hope that by mid-season, a year after his operation, he will start to show signs of being able to shoot securely once again. If that happens, he has a chance to continue his career, especially given his defensive chops.

Fields does have that Stanford degree, so he should be set to find a job.
Fields is a great locker room guy and is a terrific defender. He also has a high basketball IQ, and on the offensive end, makes terrific cuts to the basket.
I think he can get a contract.

Salmons and Casspi got contracts. If they can Fields can. If he has any shooting ability left he will sign another terrible deal.

I think he will for a minimum contract. He has to work on his shot but he has a high IQ for the game and plays smart and within himself. A player like that who knows there role will always have a place some where. I don't think he will become a starter ever though no.

I think yes.
The league is always looking for guys willing to play for minimum who have good attitude and accept their role while acting professional.
I think Fields is one of those guys.
