    Coach Nate McMillan says Rodriguez could travel with the team on its upcoming four-game road trip for practice. But the rookie guard probably won't be back until after the All-Star break.

    Rodriguez rolled his ankle during Portland's 100-91 home victory over the Denver Nuggets on January 31st.

    Meanwhile, the Blazers held practice Wednesday at St. Mary's Home for Boys in Beaverton. The home serves at-risk youth who are emotionally disturbed and behaviorally delinquent.

    McMillan said it was a great opportunity to talk to the adolescents -- and give back something.

    The Blazers took on a St. Mary's team as part of the practice. The director at St. Mary's says the kids had been looking forward to this "forever." </div>
