Primarily, our coverage here will focus on the City of Seattle’s attempt to bring the NBA back to Seattle. But we also will provide updates on the Portland Trail Blazers, the Oklahoma City Thunder and area players plying their trade for other teams in the NBA.

Gelabale tears ACL
Posted by Eric Williams @ 03:28:45 pm

The Sonics just announced the Mickael Gelabale suffered a torn ACL in his right knee during practice on Tuesday, an MRI revealed today, that will require reconstructive knee surgery.

If he has surgery, Gelabale likely will be out for an eight-to-nine month period.

Also Chris Wilcox re-injured his right pinkie finger and will be a game-time decision on Friday. Francisco Elson (sprained right knee) probably will not make the trip and Nick Collison also is banged up.

Mike Wilks came to the end of his second, 10-day contract and was not resigned, so Seattle coach P.J. Carlesimo said the team could pick up a swingman or or big man to help fill in for the injured players.

Also, expect to see Mouhamed Sene get some time on the road trip with the injuries.

That sucks for Gelebale. I think he's been improving lately with more minutes. This season is so far gone it's not even worth worrying about signing anybody. Just let Sene play the minutes Elson was getting. I hope Collison doesn't have to miss any time, he's the best rebounder and defender of the bigs.

I don't understand the need to pick up another 12th man who doesn't play, like Wilks. Sene needs minutes and this team needs another big man due to injuries. Since the team is in lotto land they should just let Sene play for the Sonics.
