Man that's horrible. What exactly is a stress fracture? He's been playing on a fractured foot?

It's up on ESPN now as well. Funny thing is that in my fantasy league the league commissioner rigged a deal so that he landed Yao + Stephen Jackson for garbage. Heh both players are injured now... Sucker got served.

I feel bad for Yao though, he really seems like a nice guy and is one of my favorite players.

He looked terrible against the Bulls(Feb. 23), so I'm assuming he did it during the game, or before it at some point...

It was against the Bucks a while ago when Yi landed on his foot, some insider on the rockets form (not realgm) posted for rocket fans to fear the worst a week ago

You hate to see that happen, especially when they were on such a roll.

That sucks big time :(.

If T-Mac can carry them, he has to garner some MVP discussion.
