The Trailblazers have been so beset with injuries this year that team owners may begin investing in hospitals. From AP-
Trail Blazers guard Steve Blake has been hospitalized with pneumonia.
Portland says Blake is expected to remain in the hospital for several days. He is averaging 7.6 points, 2.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists this season.
Portland forward LaMarcus Aldridge has a sprained left ankle and is expected to miss Saturday’s game against Golden State.
The Blazers have been beset by injuries this season and have received two hardship roster exemptions from the league.
All joking aside, a case of pneumonia can be very serious business. It was for me in 2008, when I came down with it while recovering from open heart surgery. Get well Steve Blake.
