It's been just under five years since the Portland Trail Blazer madecenter Greg Oden the No. 1 pick in the 2007 NBA Draft. On Monday, Odenis set to undergo his fifth knee surgery during those five years.
4))Okafor has missed 10 consecutive games. According to Williams,"[Okafor] is a different guy when it comes to his body. I don't evenwant to get into all that. He and [the Hornets' trainer] are trying toget on the same page as far as making sure he's healthy before he getsback out there again." Interpret that however you will. But keep inmind that prior to the injury Okafor was only returning 13th-roundvalue in nine-cat leagues.
