Andrew Bogut likely to miss Olympics due to knee injury

The knee injury that will prevent Andrew Bogut from playing in the rest of the NBA Finals also will likely keep him from playing for Australia in the Olympics this summer.

Bogut will be sidelined up to eight weeks after suffering multiple bone bruises in his left knee during Monday's Game 5 against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

"I'm not great at math, but six to eight weeks minimum is what I've been told," Bogut said during Golden State's mid-day shootaround in advance of Thursday's Game 6. "It's very unlikely at this point, to be honest."

Bogut suffered the injury when he blocked a shot by Cleveland guard J.R. Smith and fell awkwardly.

"Somehow he cannonballed right into my shin with his shoulder," Bogut said. "It was painful. ... I thought I blew out my knee, with the pain that I had."

Bogut said he will rehab the knee in an aggressive manner but doesn't see much chance of being healthy in time for the Rio de Janeiro Games.

"We'll reevaluate it in a month," Bogut said. "If I can get back on the court, we'll see. But as of now it's not looking good."
