Thomas deems there are "50-50" odds that he'll be able to suit up by the playoffs, the New York Post reports. Speaking of a comeback within a month, he said, "I'll continue to try to get the swelling out of the foot. We'll see if I could come back and reduce the pain. It's 50-50, at least. I think that's a good number. I still would love to play."

To remedy his diagnosis of an "acute stress reaction surrounding a chronic stress fracture" in his right foot, Thomas is undergoing bone stimulation, while taking in a large amount of Vitamin D. He will be evaluated every two weeks, but in his absence, a battered Knicks frontcourt will be forced to trot out very small lineups, with the aging Marcus Camby acting as the sole healthy center.
