LAKERS HEAD COACH PHIL JACKSON UNDERGOES SUCCESSFUL HIP REPLACEMENT SURGERY
EL SEGUNDO – Los Angeles Lakers head coach Phil Jackson underwent successful surgery to replace his left hip, it was announced today.
The surgery was performed at the Centinela Hospital Medical Center by Dr. Lawrence Dorr of the Arthritis Institute in Inglewood. Jackson is expected to be released from the hospital within the next 24 hours. The surgery is Jackson’s second hip replacement in the past year, having undergone right hip replacement surgery on October 3, 2006.
