<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Kings guard Doug Christie, known for his durability as much as his defensive prowess, will miss the team's training camp that starts next week after undergoing treatment on his left foot Friday to ease discomfort from plantar fasciitis. The 13-year veteran who has missed just three games because of injury or illness in his five Kings seasons, had a 30-minute procedure - called extra corporeal shockwave treatment - performed by Dr. Randall Sarte at Healthsouth Surgery Center in Sacramento.</div> Link
its something that he delt with all last year... on the upside, he can let it recover and while that is happening Martin and Minard will be able to get more time working with the starters and getting a jump up on the offense.
here is a related article from the Sac Bee http://www.sacbee.com/content/sports/baske...-11800255c.html how ironic that yet again, the kings are starting the season off with an injury at a key position. But as I said previously (and this article backs it up) it will give Martin and Minard some starts during preseason, something that will only help them.
Christie's Hurt and will miss training camp..hmmmn Well at least it's not a serious setback,and like haberofdoom said it gives Martin and Minard some oppturnities to be looked at,and playing time I'm not too worried about this situation.so things will be just fine in my opinon.
