Suns guard Leandro Barbosa will miss a month of action after having surgery to remove a cyst on his right wrist.

Phoenix general manager Steve Kerr made the announcement prior to the team's game against the Warriors on Saturday.

Barbosa had the cyst drained in November, but it returned and has been bothering him in recent weeks.

He is expected to have the surgery as soon as possible, perhaps even as early as Monday.
