Philadelphia 76ers' President Billy King announced Tuesday that rookie forward Herbert Hill has undergone successful surgery on a torn meniscus in his left knee. According to doctors, the timeline for Hill's return is approximately 4-6 weeks.

Dr. James Andrews performed the procedure in Birmingham, Alabama. Team Physician Dr. Jack McPhilemy assisted in the surgery, which took place Tuesday.

A product of Providence College, Hill was originally drafted by the Utah Jazz with the 55th overall selection in the 2007 NBA Draft before being dealt to the Sixers in a draft night trade for Kyrylo Fesenko and future draft considerations.
