Kyle Korver underwent successful surgery to remove loose bodies from his right elbow, the Hawks announced Tuesday.

Korver underwent the procedure, performed by Dr. David Altchek, at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York Tuesday morning.

Korver had surgery earlier this month to repair a season-ending right ankle injury suffered in the Eastern Conference finals. The team expects him to be fully recovered and ready for the start of training camp at the end of September.
