LeBron James reportedly has Lasik surgery

September 13, 2007
AKRON, OHIO (TICKER) -- Imagine what LeBron James can do now that he has improved vision.

The Cleveland Cavaliers star underwent Lasik eye surgery in Beverly Hills, California, over the weekend, the Akron Beacon Journal reported Wednesday on its web site.

The procedure reportedly was performed by Dr. Kerry K. Assil, a renowned eye surgeon who list numerous athletics and celebrities among his clients, including Detroit Pistons guard Richard Hamilton.

James has already been cleared by Assil to resume his offseason workout routine, the Beacon Journal stated.

Although he did not wear glasses for reading or writing, James started considering the procedure towards the end of this past season, according to the report.

The offseason has been a busy one for James, 22, who led the Cavaliers to their first appearances in the NBA Finals in June before being swept by the San Antonio Spurs.

Does this make Oden a fantasy sleeper like Brand? 12 to 13th pick will not hurt that much....

Eis, only if you're in a keeper league. all the talent in the world won't help you in a redraft league, because he's not playing at all this season...so he's taking up a roster spot for you for nothing.

wawa naman si Oden...microfracture??! :shocked2:

tanda na kasi eh...marupok na ang buto

So much for Oden making an impact this year. Microfracture surgery! Deym! He hasn't even played his first game of the season!

Sana pareho kay Amare ang recovery nya.

tindi ng reverse psychology ng mga tao dito hehehe. i expect oden to be drafted in the second round hehehe.... by ME!

hoping for an early recovery kay oden. hehehe baka makuha pa sa draft pool around post all-star break.

again, maybe in a keeper league.

NO ONE has come back from microfracture surgery in under a full year. it is a very serious procedure that involves the body taking a lot of time to re-grow cartilage in the knee.
