Suns' Raja Bell Out 4-6 Weeks After Knee Surgery

Phoenix Suns guard Raja Bell underwent arthoscopic knee surgery yesterday to clean up some damage in his right knee cap. 

The surgery doesn't sound serious and he should have no effects from the surgery after the 4-6 week recovery period.  The surgery was successful, so Bell should be just fine for training camp and the 2007-08 season.

Suns' team physician Dr. Tom Carter performed the surgery and had this to say about it:

“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.”
