Jerry Buss underwent surgery on Thursday, though the team did not disclose the nature of the procedure.

"He did have surgery and it went fine," Lakers spokesman John Black said. "He's not home yet, but he's expected to make a full recovery."

Buss, 78, was hospitalized in July for dehydration.

"I was with him [Thursday] night and he was basically incoherent and he was going to be like that for two or three days," Jim Buss told the Los Angeles Times.
