Dr. Tarek Souryal, an expert in the type of microfracture knee surgery Chris Webber underwent, said Monday that Webber’s road back will be arduous and include difficulty in logging back-to-back games, managing practice time, and potential soreness that could sideline him for stretches of games.
It is also possible Webber could overcompensate and injure other joints. It’s very likely the Kings will go easy with him during the regular season and save him for the playoffs.
