Nicolas Batum: (Knee) MRI On Tuesday

Batum is slated to undergo an MRI on his right knee Tuesday, The Oregonian reports.

Analysis:

Batum left Monday's game in Oklahoma City for good after coming down awkwardly on his right leg while competing with teammate Chris Kaman for a rebound. During the act, Batum's knee appeared to buckle, but an initial X-ray was returned negative. With one regular season contest remaining on the schedule Wednesday at Dallas, it wouldn't surprise if the wing was held out, as intimated by Batum on Monday. Nevertheless, expect clarification regarding his injury once the results of the MRI are known.
