Raja Bell has surgery

Date July 27, 2007 by Mike Olbinski

The Phoenix Suns just announced that All-NBA Defensive Team member Raja Bell underwent successful arthroscopic surgery for general debridement on his right knee Thursday. The surgery was performed by Dr. Tom Carter at the Banner Good Samaritan Hospital in Phoenix.

“Raja had mild wear and tear of his knee cap,” said Carter. “This was simply a clean-up procedure. He should experience a full recovery in four to six weeks without any limitations on his play.”

Bell, who will be entering his eighth NBA season, was named to the 2006-07 NBA All-Defensive Team, averaging a career-high tying 14.7 points and tied for the NBA lead with a career-high 205 made three-point field goals.

It will probably be okay but why did Raja wait so long to have this done?
