Brand ruptures Achilles tendon

Not sure you could envision a worse headline if your a Clippers fan. According to the Associated Press, " Los Angeles Clippers forward Elton Brand ruptured his left Achilles' tendon on Friday during his daily workout... The 28-year-old will undergo surgery but plans for the operation have not been finalized yet, the Clippers said." I'm not medical expert and it doesn't say for sure, but I'd imagine this means no Elton Brand for L.A. in 2007-08.

The team has announced that Brand will be undergoing surgery to repair the tendon this Tuesday at Wilmington Hospital in Wilmington, Delaware.

Re: Brand ruptures Achilles tendon

WOW...you said it, can't imagine a worse headline for Clippers fans. I guess a positive outlook is if he can heal and rehab quickly, perhaps he could come back at the end of the season.

Cool Re: Brand ruptures Achilles tendon

I just noticed this thread. He's a top 10 player in the league. Just devasting. The Clippers are one of those franchises that can't catch a break.
