Warriors utility Jazz Tevaga is recovering from a shoulder operation after a cancer scare
7 June 2018
Tevaga underwent surgery last week to have a potentially cancerous growth removed.
Tevaga has told the New Zealand Herald a teammate spotted a lump on his shoulder in the sheds before the Anzac Day loss to Melbourne.
He was subsequently taken for scans and needed a follow-up biopsy before receiving the good news.
Tevaga will go in for a check-up with a specialist tomorrow and hopes to be cleared to return to training over the weekend in preparation for next Friday's match against the Cowboys in Townsville.
