Bynum officially done for season, to have knee surgery

[jonathanlambert33]

Andrew Bynum will undergo arthroscopic surgery on both knees Tuesday, thus ending a season originally filled with anticipation for the Philadelphia 76ers.

The surgery will be performed by Dr. David Altchek of the Hospital of Special Surgery in New York.

"After many months of rehabilitation and consulting with numerous doctors, Andrew and the doctors treating him determined that this is the best course of action at this point," Sixers General Manager Tony DiLeo said in a statement. "We will continue to monitor and evaluate his status moving forward."

[Pugz]

i bet he still gets a fat ass contract. sad thing is, hes probably gonna still miss a huge portion of next season.

Aren't there any clauses that allow them to avoid paying him the full 16.9 this season?

 

[Pugz]

theyve already paid most of it, why bother voiding it now?

doubt it.


bet he gets like a $1.3M deal with a $10M team option. If he plays well, he gets paid well. If he sucks, he's gone

If the Rockets miss on everyone, I bet they give him a multi year deal worth 10 million annually, at least.

One team will give him a big deal.
