"It went great," Jeff Hawes said. "They did it cleanly and quickly, and he’s champing at the bit to get back. He understands the process, and he’s just excited and anxious to get playing. It's been frustrating for him." According to Jeff Hawes, microfracture surgery was "never discussed" and will not be needed. - Sam Amick</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <a href="http://www.sacbee.com/static/weblogs...es/008613.html" target="_blank">http://www.sacbee.com/static/weblogs...es/008613.html</a></p>
Glad to hear it wasn't microfracture again for Hawes. I love this kid's upside and still cannot believe the Kings managed to land him in the draft.</p>
The Kings said they expect Hawes to begin rehabilitation immediately and to begin basketball activity in three weeks. The team expects him back at full strength within four to five weeks.</p> http://www.sacbee.com/kings/story/424960.html</p>
