    Sources overseas have confirmed that Blazers Forward Nicolas Batum has ruptured his right shoulder. During practice today with the French National Team he reportedly colided with another teammate on a fast break and appeared to favor his right shoulder while walking away from the FIBA facilities. What does this mean for Nic Batum for this seasons... anybody's guess. More Later...

    Will post article and link as soon as I find it.

    It was posted on Oregonlive so I don't know how reliable it is. I'm not seeing anything on the googles or other interwebs.

    Sorry if this was just a false alarm.

    That's from the troll on olive, i'd be wary of believing it until it's from a credible source.

    It is also hard to believe because if he collided with Boris Diaw, it would be like running into a soft pillow of fat. It's not like that is going to separate anybodies shoulder!
