Advertiser Staff
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Charlotte Bobcats forward Sean May is facing six to 12 months of rehabilitation after microfracture surgery on his right knee this week.May had the surgery yesterday in New York. It involved drilling tiny holes in bones around the knee to try to stimulate cartilage growth.
May will be on crutches for up to two months. The Bobcats are hopeful the procedure will allow May to play again in the 2008-09 season.
The 13th pick in the 2005 draft, May has been limited 58 games in the past two seasons because of knee trouble. He had surgery to remove cartilage during his rookie year and developed a bone bruise last season.
