Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is only 55 years old, but as a sufferer of osteoarthritis, parts of his body wear down a little quicker than average.
On Wednesday, the billionaire underwent surgery to replace his right hip. The surgery was a success, and Cuban posted an awkward video on Instagram on Thursday showing his mobility just 24 hours removed from the procedure.

This is Cuban's second total hip replacement, according to ESPN, who highlight that he had his left hip replaced in 2007 before appearing on Dancing With the Stars.
