Former Memphis Grizzlies and University of Memphis point guard Antonio Burks remains in critical condition a day after being shot during a robbery.
A spokeswoman for Regional Medical Center in Memphis said Tuesday morning there was no change in the medical condition of Burks, who underwent surgery Monday night after he was shot in the lower torso.
Police said the 29-year-old was returned to the operating room about 10 p.m. Monday because of internal bleeding.
The Commercial Appeal quoted police as saying Burks and four other men were in the backyard of a Memphis house when they were robbed by three men. They shot Burks and another man, whose identity was not released. Police said the second victim also was in critical condition.
Burks played 81 games for the Grizzlies from 2004-06, averaging 2.3 points and 1.3 assists.
