OAKLAND, Calif., -- Golden State Warriors forward David Lee is recovering from successful elbow surgery to remove an infection, the team said Saturday.
The 27-year-old was injured Wednesday during the Warriors' 122-117 victory in New York, sustaining a deep laceration to the elbow.
The Warriors said Dr. Frank Chen performed the procedure at the Fremont, Calif., Surgery Center.

He has averaged 14.3 points and 11.3 rebounds in eight games this season.
