Minnesota Timberwolves guard Brandon Roy will undergo
another knee surgery this week which will sideline the former Portland Trailblazers
star for an unknown amount of time, reports Jason Quick of The Oregonian.
The much-anticipated return of Brandon Roy to the Rose Garden will not happen this week after the Minnesota guard and former Trail Blazers legend has scheduled a right knee surgery for this week, The Oregonian has learned.
Quick notes that the procedure will be the seventh of Roy’s
career, and the fifth since he has been playing professionally. Roy medically
retired in December of 2011 from the Trailblazers due to arthritic and
degenerative knees.
However, Roy decided to make a comeback and signed a
two-year contract with the Timberwolves in July. The three-time All-Star banged
his right knee during the team’s final preseason game and later aggravated it
during the regular season.
