yi jianlian out for the rest of the season

Bad news for Bucks fans. Milwaukee Bucks rookie forward Yi Jianlian will miss the final eight games of the regular season with a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee: Yi will miss the rest of season. The Bucks made the announcement Friday night before their game against the Indiana Pacers. 20-year-old Yi, the No. 6 pick in the 2007 NBA draft, hurt his knee earlier in the week in a game against the Washington Wizards. I guess the question is, going into the summer, will he be ready to play for China this August in the Summer Olympics?
