Vlade Divac undergoes emergency surgery in Serbia

BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) -- Former NBA center Vlade Divac has undergone emergency stomach surgery in Serbia.

Doctors said Saturday in a statement that Divac was admitted to a Belgrade hospital after feeling ''strong pains in his stomach.''

The statement said his life was not threatened. It did not specify his exact health problem.

The 46-years-old Divac, who heads the Serbian Olympic Committee, started and ended his 16-year NBA career with the Los Angeles Lakers. From 1989 to 2005 he played for the Lakers, Sacramento Kings and Charlotte Hornets, and was an All-Star in 2001.

Let's pray for a speedy and successful recovery from surgery for the godfather of modern day flopping in the NBA.

Gotta love that chain-smoking Serbian.

Revisionist history at its finest. I love it. The scars still visibly remain.

The Los Angeles Lakers don't win that championship without that memorable assist from Vlade to Robert Horry in the final seconds of Game Four in Los Angeles.
