PODGORICA, Montenegro -- Former NBA center Vlade Divac underwent emergency surgery after breaking a hip in a fall from his motorcycle in Montenegro, doctors said Friday. Hospital officials said Divac sustained a fracture and that an artificial hip was implanted. "During the day, a surgical procedure was performed," said Ljubica Mitrovic, a spokeswoman of the hospital in the town of Risan. "He is in a stable general and physical condition and is under a careful supervision of the medical staff." When he joined the Lakers in 1989, he was among the first group of European players to transfer to the NBA.
