Dudley (back) indicated Monday that he could be back in time for the Wizards' season opener, the Washington Post reports.

Analysis:

Dudley is 10 weeks clear of back surgery, and he said at Monday's media day that he's no longer facing many limitations. "I basically can do everything I want to on the court and then now it's basically just listening to the doctors at that 12-week mark," Dudley said. "I'll probably do 70, 80 percent. The only thing I won't do is full contact, full court. And then once that 12-week mark goes, I'll let go and do full speed. And once the coaches see how I am at 12 weeks, hopefully I can play a preseason game. I expect to be back, if not at the beginning of the season, one or two weeks into the season." It looks as though Dudley will be limited for most of training camp and into the preseason, but if he doesn't run into any roadblocks, the veteran has a chance to be on the floor when the Wizards open up against the Magic on Oct. 28.
