Hedo Turkoglu underwent minor gall bladder surgery in his native Turkey last week.

The Arizona Republic first reported the story.

Phoenix coach Alvin Gentry said the procedure was "not a big deal."

"We checked with the doctors, and it's a minor procedure. He [was] just having some gallstones removed," Gentry said. "He's supposed to be playing in three to four days and has been cleared to travel next week."
