New Orleans Hornets guard Eric Gordon told Yahoo! Sports he will be out 4-6 weeks before he can return from a lingering knee injury.
Bracing for bad news, Gordon was pleased to get that non-surgical prognosis from a doctor he visited in Chicago on Thursday. He said he will "grind" in his knee strengthening and rehabilitation exercises to ensure his return to the court in the time frame.
Gordon had arthroscopic right knee surgery on Feb. 14 and played in only nine games of the 2011-12 lockout-shortened season. The Hornets matched a five-year, $58 million contract offer sheet he signed with the Phoenix Suns during the offseason to keep him in New Orleans.
