Andrew Bynum hit the deck last night, grabbing his knee in pain. The air was sucked out of the Staples Center as the crowd worried both for their young rising star and the Laker's season.
The news today is that Andrew does not require surgery, and will be out 8 weeks. 8 weeks from now, the Lakers will have 17 games left in the season, so they'll need to do the bulk of the rest of the year without a kid who's been getting better every game. Bynum is averaging 13.1 points and 10.2 rebounds per game.
