Via BlazersEdge, Portland released a statement on Greg Oden’s surgery.
PORTLAND, Ore. – Portland Trail Blazers center Greg Oden will miss the remainder of the 2009-10 season after undergoing successful surgery Sunday to repair a fracture in his left patella, it was announced by General Manager Kevin Pritchard.
Joe Freeman of The Oregonian reports via his twitter…
Had 2 screws inserted to reattach his patella. The bone has to repair and bond itself; should take 2 months. After so much inactivity, Oden will then experience muscle atrophy. That will take another two months of recovery.
