Luke’s surgery is a success; will be healed by training camp!

Luke’s foot surgery goes well. He is expected to be fully healed by training camp…

O.C. Register: Lakers forward Luke Walton is expected to be fully recovered from Friday’s ankle surgery by the time training camp opens in October, the team announced. Walton underwent surgery to remove bone spurs, scar tissure and cartiledge debris in his right ankle that bothered him for most of the season.

His rehabilitation is expected to take six weeks.  The surgery, which took approximately 60 minutes, was performed by Dr. David Thordarson at the University of Southern California.

    Hopefully this will make it much easier for us to trade him, hopefully before the start of next season.

    … y trade him? Sheesh. All of y’all are pathetic. You are expecting EVERY single player on the team to play like an All-Star. Does every player on the Celtics play like an all-star?

    The only team that would take Fluke Walton is TNT Overtime and his “Mask”-looking father Bill Walton :X
