The New York Knicks will be without PF/C Amar’e
Stoudemire (knee) for approximately six weeks, as he will
have a right knee debridement sometime in the upcoming week, the
team announced Saturday.
The debridement is a form of arthroscopic surgery which will
remove debris. Soreness in his knee made the team send him out for
an MRI. Apparently he had another cyst burst in his knee, which is
what sent him to the surgeon’s table earlier this season. He missed
eight weeks as a result of the last debridement, and he had been
playing with a 30-minute cap. For those who are in re-draft Fantasy
leagues, it is a good idea to pull the plug on Stoudemire. There is
no sense keeping him on your roster, and those in keeper leagues
probably won’t protect him either.
