Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 4 (UPI) -- Memphis Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph has a slight tear in his right medial collateral ligament of his right knee and is expected to miss 6-8 weeks.
Citing sources, The (Memphis) Commercial Appeal reported Wednesday the injury is not expected to require surgery and Randolph will be re-evaluated in two weeks.
Randolph sustained the injury Sunday when teammate O.J. Mayo fell on him during the first quarter of the Grizzlies' 104-64 loss to Chicago. Initially suspected to be a bruise, the injury was revealed to be a slight tear after an MRI exam.
Randolph -- who signed a four-year, $71 million contract extension in April 2011 -- is a 10-year veteran. He has averaged 14.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.0 assist and 1.3 steals through four games this season.
He was named an NBA all-star in 2010.
