Okafor, who has been diagnosed with a herniated disc in his neck, is not considering retirement and hopes to return this season, Yahoo! Sports reports.

Okafor's official designation is out indefinitely, but that fact he's only hoping to return this season suggests it's not a lock that he'll play during the 2013-14 season. Nene is now positioned to start at center for the Wizards, health permitting, with Al Harrington likely starting at the No. 4 spot.
