Plus, also the line of the hair that my doctor took out. Is that ever going to grow back?

Mark,

Welcome to our community.

It depends on how intense the players are.

At 2 weeks you are pretty safe to resume some light exercise.

The scar however, is still relatively fragile so you don't want to do anything that could stretch or harm it.

Contact sports should be avoided for about 3 months to avoid injury to the donor area.

The bottom line is...use sound judgment. Don't over-exert yourself and you should be fine.

Best wishes,

Falc

If you have Your Surgery just 2weeks ago You Must Wait to Play Basket ball actually I had also done my surgery but I wait for around a Month I recover Properly then start Playing Basketball if you play just after 2 weeks It may be dangerous to your Injury.
