Kyrie Irving’s surgery was a success, according to the Boston Celtics.
The point guard had two screws removed from his left patella, and according to team president Danny Ainge, the operation was a success and Irving is expected back for training camp.

This will come as little consolation for this season’s Celtics, who won’t have their star guard for the playoffs. Hopefully, though, this ensures that his long-term health will be a bit cleaner.
