UCLA forward Brendan Lane will have surgery to repair what team officials said are ‘multiple injuries’ to his left ankle. He will miss about five months, according to team officials.

Lane, a 6-foot-9 freshman from Rocklin High in Northern California, sprained his ankle three times during the season and missed five games.

He averaged 2.4 points and 1.5 rebounds in 10 minutes a game while shooting 57.4% from the field.
