Good news on the Trail Blazers injury front came to light today. Joe Freeman of The Oregonian hinted at the possible Saturday return for Portland big man Meyers Leonard. This is the first real timetable on when Leonard will be back in the starting line up.
Freeman’s article outlines the following:
Meyers Leonard will not play Tuesday when the Trail Blazers host the Chicago Bulls — but his return might not be too far off.
The Blazers’ big man on Monday took a significant step in his rehabilitation from a dislocated left shoulder, playing live 1-on-1 games against teammate Chris Kaman during the team’s afternoon workout at the practice facility in Tualatin.
