Very good NBA starter
Yao Ming out for rest of playoffs with left foot hairline fracture!
http://www.insidehoops.com/blog/?p=4310
Rockets center Yao Ming has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2009 NBA Playoffs after further diagnostic procedures conducted today revealed a small hairline fracture in his left foot. The finding is in addition to the earlier diagnosis of a left ankle sprain that he sustained during Friday night’s 108-94 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals playoff series. While no surgery is needed, the expected recovery timeline is between eight to 12 weeks.

What set you claim?
Re: Yao out for the season?
I'm a Lakers fan but this makes me sad. The guy works so hard and plays with a ton of heart but his body fails him.
He did play an extraordinary amount of games for him as he was also in the Olympics too.

Re: Yao out for the season?
They just mentioned it in the Cavs-Hawks broadcast, the injury is a hairline fracture, not a sprain, and he's out for the rest of the playoff. Laker take it in 5.

Re: Yao out for the season?
Very sad news. Hopefully he makes a full recovery and comes back strong next season.
I am going to chalk this injury up to bad Karma from the Blazer/Rocket series where iTruWarrior (#1 Yao nut hugger) was wishing bodily injury on Oden.

Well that's a lame end to what was looking like the most exciting second round series.
ESPN said it was a hairline fracture.
