    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Trail Blazers forward Travis Outlaw on Thursday said his sprained right ankle will keep him out of Saturday's game at Sacramento, and probably for at least the next week.

    With 40 seconds left in the third quarter of Wednesday's game at the Rose Garden, Outlaw landed on the foot a New York player while playing defense, causing his ankle to roll over. Outlaw said it is the first time in his life he has suffered a sprained ankle. X-Rays taken on Wednesday were negative, but a baseball-sized knot is present on the outside of his ankle bone.

    On Thursday, Outlaw was still on crutches and unable to put pressure on his foot.

    I'm no doctor, but by the looks of the swelling, and how gingerly Outlaw is treating the ankle, I would guess Outlaw will miss the next five games: Saturday at Sacramento, Sunday at home against Miami, Tuesday at San Antonio, Wednesday at Dallas and next Friday at home against Sacramento.</div>
