Dallas -- Recently acquired Dallas Mavericks forward Tim Thomas had arthroscopic surgery to repair torn cartilage in his right knee Tuesday.

It wasn't clear when Thomas would be able to resume play.

Dr. T.O. Souryal, the NBA club's team physician, performed the procedure at Texas
Sports Medicine.

Thomas signed with Dallas in the off-season and injured himself while working out in his Southern California home.

The 6-foot-10 journeyman has averaged 11.6 points and 4.6 rebounds in 806 regular-season games over 12 seasons with New York, Chicago, Milwaukee, Phoenix and Los
Angeles Clippers. He averaged 13.3 points and 5.1 boards in seven playoff runs.

Boston, April 4 -- Tim Thomas stopped 31 shots Saturday in his fifth shutout this season, helping the Boston Bruins record a 1-0 win over the New York Rangers.

Thomas's effort came one day after he signed a 4-year contract worth a reported $20 million and gave the Bruins the top playoff seed in the Eastern Conference for the first time since 2001-02 season.

"I'm very happy to be staying in Boston for the next 4 years," he said at a news conference before Saturday's contest. "Knowing that with free agency coming up potentially this summer, you have to think about would you rather go somewhere else or would you rather stay in Boston.."
