[ehizzy3]

Los Angeles Lakers guard Jordan Farmar, who hurt his left knee last week against the Miami Heat, underwent successful surgery Wednesday to repair a torn lateral meniscus, according to a team release.

The surgery, which took approximately 30 minutes, was performed by Dr. Clarence Shields of the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Group.

Team doctor Steve Lombardo examined Farmar on Monday in Los Angeles and confirmed the injury.

Lakers coach Phil Jackson, quoted in The Los Angeles Times, is expecting Farmar back around the Feb. 15 All-Star Game.
