Theron Smith Undergoes Successful Knee Surgery

Bobcats forward Theron Smith had successful surgery on his right knee today, it was announced by Bobcats General Manager and Head Coach Bernie Bickerstaff.

Dr. Glenn Perry performed the arthroscopic procedure at Presbyterian Orthopedic Hospital to repair damaged cartilage in his right knee.

Smith has been on the injured list for both of the team’s regular season games after he played in three preseason games and averaged 7.3 points and 5.0 rebounds in 15.0 minutes.

The 6-8, 230-pound forward was chosen by Charlotte in the Expansion Selection on June 22, after he played his rookie season in Memphis last year.
