The Los Angeles Lakers announced that forward Channing Frye had a successful Laparoscopic Appendectomy on Friday night in Cleveland, Ohio.
Frye missed Thursday’s contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves for personal reasons. He’ll spend the rest of the All-Star break in Cleveland with his family and will be re-evaluated in one week when he returns to Los Angeles.
The 34-year-old was acquired from the Cleveland Cavaliers at the NBA trade deadline last week, along with two-time All-Star Isaiah Thomas. He’s appeared in just one game for the Lakers thus far, logging 11 minutes in a loss against the New Orleans Pelicans.
