Expect backup swingman Rudy Fernandez to start until (or unless) Roy is healthy enough to suit up.--- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted April 13, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 PORTLAND, Ore. -- Portland Trail Blazers guard Brandon Roy has a torn meniscus in his right knee and his status for the playoffs is uncertain. Roy sat out Monday night's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder and will miss Wednesday's regular season finale against Golden State. He will require surgery and will be out from four to six weeks. But he said he may try to play with the injury in the playoffs because doctors told him it cannot get worse. Roy is the Blazers' leading scorer with 21.8 points per game. He injured his knee on Sunday when the Blazers played at the Lakers. The Blazers have clinched a spot in the playoffs, but their opponent for the first round has yet to be determined.

ChosenOne Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Damn that sucks, it did not look bad enough the tear his meniscus but I guess so. Injuries have been the story all year for the Blazers, I cant believe they still managed to make the playoffs. Better luck next year, hopefully they can stay healthy and show what they are made of.
