Kansas sophomore wing Brannen Greene had successful surgery to repair a torn labrum in his right hip on Thursday morning, his father, Jeffrey, told The Star. The three-hour procedure took place in Nashville, Tenn.
While the original recovery timeline was estimated to be close to five months, Jeffrey Greene said doctors were optimistic about the rehab timeline and said Greene could return to the basketball court in four months. Greene will be on crutches for close to two months before beginning the rehab process, Jeffrey Greene said.
Greene is believed to have suffered the torn labrum in mid-February, his father said.
