Milwaukee Bucks forward Larry Krystkowiak, who missed most of last season after being injured in May of 1989, is to undergo additional surgery on his left knee and will be lost for the 1990-91 season, the team said.

The National Basketball Assn.. club said that Krystkowiak’s torn anterior cruciate ligament will be reconstructed in the operation Aug. 14 in Los Angeles.

The 6-foot-10 veteran had surgery after being hurt in the 1989 semifinal playoffs with the Detroit Pistons to repair the medial capsule, medial ligaments and medial cartilage in the knee.
