The Memphis Grizzlies' immediate schedule just became a whole lot tougher.The Grizzlies learned Wednesday they'll be without star power forward Zach Randolph for up to eight weeks with a slight tear of the medial collateral ligament in his right knee.The injury will not require surgery, and Randolph will be re-evaulated in two weeks.The Grizzlies thought at first that Randolph was only dealing with a bruised MCL, but an MRI performed Wednesday revealed the tear.Randolph suffered the injury when teammate O.J. Mayo fell on his leg late in the first quarter of a one-sided loss to Chicago over the weekend.Randolph's loss will be a major one for the Grizzlies, who have already lost versatile forward Darrell Arthur for the season with an Achilles injury. Randolph averages 14.8 points and 7.5 rebounds in four games after posting 20.1 points and 12.2 boards a season argo.Memphis was on the verge of acquiring center Mareese Speights from the Philadelphia 76ers earlier Wednesday.
