Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love underwent surgery Friday on his left foot and will be re-evaluated in approximately six weeks, the team announced.

The surgery occurred at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City and was performed by Dr. Martin O'Malley.

The Cavs said Love, 30, "will now undergo an extended period of treatment and rehabilitation."

A five-time All-Star who signed a four-year, $120 million contract extension this summer, Love is averaging 19 points and 13.5 rebounds a game in just four games this season. He said earlier this week that the injury to his left big toe has caused "significant" pain since early October.
