Dallas Mavericks All-Star Kyrie Irving underwent successful surgery to repair his torn left ACL on Wednesday at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City, sources told ESPN.
The surgery was performed by Dr. Riley J. Williams, the Chief of Sports Medicine at HSS, per sources. Irving only had an ACL tear in his left knee -- with no damage to any other ligament or the meniscus, sources said.
Irving, 32, sustained the injury late in the first quarter of the Mavericks' 122-98 loss to the Sacramento Kings on March 3.
The injury was a devastating blow to the Mavericks' season, as Irving was the team's best overall player.
