Granger to return tonight
Posted by Unknown on Tuesday, October 23, 2012 with No comments
Pacers' forward Danny Granger has missed all of the NBA's preseason because of a left knee injury but Granger is expected to start tonight when the Pacers face the Cavaliers in Cleveland. Despite playing tonight, Granger is still not at 100%.
"It feels good (to be able to play)," Granger said. "I've been practicing for the past week and a half, but this will be the first time I've had some game experience. It's good to get my feet wet a little bit....Some days it feels better than other days, but I still play through the pain. I'm kind of limited to what I can do on the court, but I'm still playing....I'll always have soreness, but it's a different kind of soreness than you expect....It's not like my knee is sore and I should lay off. We have to put stress on it and break up some of the scar tissue."
