Pekovic (Achilles) was limited to only 31 games in 2014-15 due to recurring injuries. in 26.3 minutes, Pekovic averaged 12.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and shot just 42.4 percent from the field. Injuries have been an issue since Pekovic entered the league in 2010, and he's yet to play more than 65 games in a single season. After missing 28 games last season, he missed 51 in 2014-15, due in large part to an ankle/Achilles injury that nagged him for several months. While rehabbing a wrist injury in November, Pekovic aggravated the ankle injury and would go on to miss two months before returning to the court in late-January. He played about a month-and-a-half before again aggravating the ankle injury against Phoenix on Mar. 11. It would prove to be Pekovic's final game of the season, and he was officially shut down on Mar. 30. About a week later, Pekovic underwent surgery on the ankle/Achilles, a procedure that is expected to entail a 5-to-6 month recovery period. That timetable puts him on track to be ready for the start of training camp, though it's certainly not a guarantee that he'll heal as quickly as expected. Given Pekovic's injury history and liability as a defender, the rebuilding Wolves would likely jump at the opportunity to move the center, especially with Gorgui Dieng coming off of a promising second season. However, Pekovic signed a five-year, $60 million deal in the summer of 2013 that now looks to be one of the most immovable contracts in the NBA. He'll remain under contract for $12.1 million in 2015-16.
