Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
WASHINGTON, Oct. 16 (UPI) -- The Washington Wizards likely will be without swingman Jerry Stackhouse for the start of the 2003-04 season.
Stackhouse is scheduled to undergo arthroscopic surgery on his right knee Tuesday in New York to determine the cause of the continued discomfort he is experiencing, Wizards president of basketball operations Ernie Grunfeld announced Thursday.
"We have spoken with Jerry, our team doctors as well as Dr. David Altchek in New York and we feel that the surgery to determine the extent of the damage to Jerry's knee is the best course of action at this time," Grunfeld said.
An MRI taken Tuesday revealed that Stackhouse suffers from chondromalacia, a wearing of the lining in the back of the kneecap.
It is unlikely that Stackhouse, who recently signed a four-year extension worth $33 million, will be ready for the Wizards' season opener on Oct. 29.
