Busta Bucket by Correspondent Written on November 18, 2009

Okay, so we've got good news and bad news. The good news is Travis had successful surgery on his foot today. The bad news, he's out 3-5 months. Three to five MONTHS!?

The team hasn't given out any more information, but obviously it was more of an issue then we initially though. Here's the release:

 

TRAVIS OUTLAW UNDERGOES FOOT SURGERY

PORTLAND, Ore. - Trail Blazers forward Travis Outlaw underwent successful surgery to repair a stress fracture of the fifth metatarsal bone in his left foot, the Portland Trail Blazers announced today. He is expected to be sidelined for three to five months.
