Tim Thomas Hurt His Knee

The Mavs still don’t know just how severe the knee injury is: “The Mavericks also learned that forward Tim Thomas suffered a knee injury of undetermined severity during a pickup game on the East Coast. Apparently, the injury is at least a sprain, but could include some cartilage damage. A sprain would mean the 6-10 forward probably would be able to participate in at least part of training camp, which starts Sept. 28, if not all of it. Cartilage damage would require perhaps four to eight weeks of recovery time. The Mavericks hope to know more when their doctors examine Thomas.”
