WEBSTER UNDERGOES FOOT SURGERY

PORTLAND, Ore. - The Portland Trail Blazers announced that guard Martell Webster underwent surgery today to repair a stress fracture in his left foot. He is expected to be sidelined for 8-10 weeks.

Dr. Jay Crary performed the surgery at Southwest Washington Regional Surgery Center in Vancouver , Wash. As part of the procedure, Webster had a screw inserted into his fifth metatarsal bone.   

The injury occurred during Tuesday night's preseason game against the Sacramento Kings.

It's a bummer because I love how Martell came out in that game, but at least it's early on.  Speedy recovery!
