    Northwestern freshman guard Tre Demps may require surgery after tearing a ligament in his left shoulder during a recent pickup game.

    Demps suffered the injury Wednesday while playing in a game in Los Angeles and had it examined by a doctor in the area on Thursday. He will meet with another doctor in New Orleans on Monday before deciding whether to have surgery immediately or wait until after the season.

    "It's still pretty painful," Demps said on Saturday. "I have no clue (what will happen). I have no idea what these kind of things can do. I'm going to wait to see what the doctor says. I will get the doctor's opinion and talk with my family and the people at Northwestern and make a decision.
