Camby out; Granger in

RCadayona - Pang-masa

MANILA, Philippines - Bagama’t kasama si veteran center Marcus Camby ng Houston Rockets sa kanilang pagdayo sa Pilipinas, hindi naman niya matutulungan ang bagong sentrong si Dwight Howard.

Sinabi ni Camby na ginagawa na niya ang lahat para makaiwas na sumailalim sa isang surgery kaugnay sa kanyang torn plantar fascia sa paa.

“My plantar fascia is torn,” wika ni Camby. “I’m trying to do whate-ver I can to avoid surgery. We’re just going to rehab it and see how it goes in the next two weeks and take it from there.”

Nasa bansa si Camby para sa pre-season game ng Rockets laban sa Indiana Pacers kagabi sa Mall of Asia Arena sa Pasay City. Sa kanilang dalawang araw na pag-eensayo mula nang dumating sa bansa noong Lunes ay sumasama ang 6-foot-11 na si Camby sa shoot around ng Rockets.

Samantala, tila gumaan ang dinadalang ‘pressure’ ni Paul George nang bumalik na ang  scorer ng team na si Danny Granger sa Indiana Pacers para sa darating na NBA season.

“It’s good to have Danny back because he has been helping everyone out,” wika ni George kay Granger. “It feels good to have Danny back. Having him back is huge for us.”

Hindi nakalaro si Granger sa halos kabuuan ng nakaraang season dahil sa injury.

Sa pamamahinga ni Granger, ipinakita ng 6’8 na si George ang kanyang husay nang tulungan ang Pacers na makapasok sa Eastern Conference finals laban sa Miami Heat.
