WTF is going on with Troy Murphy?

Seriously... this guy has missed 5 games in a row from a BRUISED back. Does anyone have any recent updates? It's just telling me to keep him on the bench.

Day to day, as far as I can tell. There's also a question about whether he'll return to the starting lineup once healthy. They've gone 5-1 with him sidelined and O'Brien has said he'll likely stick with Granger at the PF slot when Murphy gets back.

This is why I don't like Murphy, he's softer than charmin bath tissue. I only draft him if it absolutely makes sense for my team, which is rare. But this year I had Dwight so I needed FT% and then he goes and sits out with a minor injury. He's not injury prone in a normal sense, he just STAYS hurt even when he shouldn't be. It seems like all white bigs are (Biedrins, Kaman, Bogut, Murhpy).

I hear Murph is just sad, that's all.

i purposely stayed away (after his breakout year won me my league last year) because hey...white guys on the pacers always slump hard or get injured after breakout campaigns (hi, dunleavy)
