Portland’s M.A.S.H. Unit Grows: Brandon Roy Out At Least A Week With Hamstring Injury

What the heck did the Portland Trailblazers do to the basketball gods? Already, they've lost Greg Oden, Joel Przybilla and Travis Outlaw for the season and Nicholas Batum and Rudy Fernandez for long stretches.

Now, things might get even worse. According to Jason Quick of the Oregonian, star Brandon Roy will sit out at least the next four games with a nagging right hamstring injury.

Bob Myers, the agent for Brandon Roy, said the All-Star guard will be given one week of rest before his right hamstring is re-evaluated next Thursday.
That means Roy will miss at least the Blazers’ next four games: Tonight in Boston, Saturday in Detroit, and home games Jan. 25 against New Orleans and Jan. 27 against Utah.

It might get even worse, since Roy's injury could still be a problem when he's re-evaluated. Judging from the way this season has gone, it wouldn't shock me to hear even more bad news in a week. Poor Trail Blazers.
