Finally found a source on the rumor that Jason Smith hurt his knee this week. Philly.com is reporting...
Jason Smith, the 76ers' second-year big man, is likely to miss
several months after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament
in his left knee. Smith went down Wednesday night during a
session at Tim Grgurich's nationally-renowned skills camp in
Las Vegas. - philly.com
This is really the first bad news surrounding the Sixers this summer. It's sucks for Smith as he is coming off a decent summer league and was expected to really contribute behind Samuel Dalembert. He is getting re-evaluated, but the early diagnosis is a torn ligament and that means a long rehabilitation process. Hopefully he can bounce back strong from this set-back late in the season or next year. Two years in a row now the Sixers lose big man depth due to off-season injuries.
What does this mean for the Sixers...
