He said that he had shock wave therapy three weeks ago on the same knee that caused him to miss 24 games. But Booker began experiencing some discomfort a few days before camp began.
“I think I may have starting playing pick up too early,” Booker said. “My knee got a little sore but it’s feeling pretty good right now and I talked to the doctor today. He said it’s looking good. He said to take it day by day'.

ENOUGH!!! I want Booker and Singleton waived yesterday. This organization would rather carry injured players with no future with the team because they have guaranteed deals. So tired of this.
I see the argument for waiving Singleton, because I don't see him really being worth the roster spot. Also although he can play SF or PF, he hasn't produced enough at either that he provides any depth.
Booker's injury(hopefully) is less significant, but when healthy he can provide needed depth at PF. If it was a choice between someone who has been productive like Blair or Booker, I would take Blair. However if it is a guy off the street, he isn't likely to be better than Booker. I am a little worried that the Wizards will keep Booker and commit too much to do so.
