Gilbert Arenas underwent surgery Wednesday to repair a partial tear in his left meniscus and the injury is expected to keep him out at least three months, the Washington Post reports. Arenas originally tore the meniscus in the knee last April 3 and had surgery a few days later. The re-injury happened during Friday night's game at Minnesota but Arenas does not remember if it took place on a specfic play. "Everything just started hurting after the game," Arenas said. "The pain came out of nowhere." A statement from the doctor who perfomed the surgery: "I repaired a partial tear of Gilbert's left medial meniscus," said Dr. Marc Connell, the team physician. "In addition, he had a non-weight bearing articular surface defect in the trochlea treated by microfracture. We are optimistic that he will be able to return to action in three months."
