The Phoenix Suns announced that second-year
center Robin Lopez will undergo surgery Tuesday to repair a broken fifth
metatarsal in his left foot.
The injury occurred during the second half of the club's intrasquad scrimmage
Saturday in San Diego. Lopez is expected to be sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks.
The 15th overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft, Lopez averaged 3.2 points and 2.0
rebounds in 60 games last season.
