Portland Trailblazers All Star point guard Brandon Roy will sit out indefinitely because of sore knees. The three time All Star has missed nine games this season, including his last six. The timetable for Roy to return is uncertain.

Roy is averaging 16.6 points per game this season, which is way down from his 19.9 in his career. Roy has been bothered by his knees all season, but has just tried to play through it. The knee problems have to do with a lack of cartilage in his knee.

Portland is currently in fourth place in the Northwest Division in the Western Conference. The Trailblazers hold a 17-16 record; which is 8th place in the Western Conference. Portland will wait until Sunday to play their next game. In that game, the Trailblazers will battle the Houston Rockets at the Rose Garden.
