01.12.2007
Miami, FL (Basketball News) - Miami Heat announced that head coach Pat Riley underwent successful hip surgery on Thursday, just over a week removed from going under the knife to have three large pieces of cartilage removed from his right knee.

Riley had the hip surgery at Mercy Hospital in Miami, with the 60-minute procedure being performed by Dr. Carlos Lavernia.

Because of his various physical ailments, Riley took a temporary leave from the Heat on January 3. No timetable has been set on his return.
