This is why US Basketball was so bad for so long. Too many players (or the NBA team they play for) didn't want this to happen. They put one "dream team" calibur team together and someone gets hurt this fast. This isn't good for the future.

let's wait to see how bad he's 'hurt' first... still a small price for a multi-millionaire to pay for your country, doing something he would be doing anyway.

I'm not a doctor, but a hyperextended knee shouldn't keep him out for too long, should it?

Cant imagine it would, but will be enough to sideline him till the actual tourney starts in a few days.

Supposedly the injury is nothing serious at all, and he will be out 3-5 days... not even games, just days.
