Kareem Abdul-Jabbar briefly examined at LA hospital (The Associated Press)

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has briefly returned to the hospital two weeks after undergoing quadruple coronary bypass surgery, but his business manager says it was just a precaution and the NBA's career scoring leader is doing fine.

Deborah Morales says the 68-year-old Abdul-Jabbar experienced a heart irregularity of some kind Wednesday morning and was examined by doctors at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles. She says he didn't have any chest pain.

Morales says the Hall of Famer was examined and released after about an hour, was feeling fine and resting comfortably at home.
