Magic point guard Jameer Nelson says that returning earlier than expected won't affect his rehabilitation.

Nelson underwent what was called season-ending shoulder surgery for a torn labrum in February, but returned to play in all five of Orlando's Finals games against Los Angeles.

"I don't regret coming back," Nelson told the Associated Press. "I regret some of the plays I made, but I don't regret coming back. Now I just have to listen to the training staff and get ready to play next season. I'll be fine."
