In this episode, we discuss the recent surgery that Lonzo Ball underwent, his third knee surgery in over a year. Dr. Grant Garcia explains cartilage transplant surgery and how it is a unique procedure that is not commonly performed on professional athletes. We also talk about the history of Lonzo Ball's knee injuries and how his meniscus tear led to the loss of cartilage in his knee. I ask Dr. Garcia if he has any Big Baller Brand gear in his wardrobe…
Dr. Garcia does about 30 to 40 of these procedures a year. The recovery process is a long one, taking about 9-12 months, but the success rates for the procedure are high. Dr. Garcia notes that success rates for professional athletes may be different. Rebless is a robotic by H Robotic that most likely will be used in Lonzo Ball’s recovery, which we’ve discussed in previous shows.
