Jared Sullinger had two herniated discs in his back before undergoing season-ending surgery.

There's the "red flag" teams were identifying on Jared Sullinger's back prior to his being drafted in 2012. The surgery is expected to fix Sullinger's back issues for the duration of his career, and it should actually improve his vertical lift as well. He's expected to be ready for training camp next season.
