That Explains It...Swoopes Sidelined by Bulging Disc

5 O'Clock (Bad) News:

Sheryl Swoopes has been diagnosed with a bulging disc in her lower back and is expected to be out for two to four weeks.

We all knew something was wrong... for the first three games, she's averaged 7.6 points and 5.6 rebounds per game (not to mention the fact that she's been grabbing her back!).

We'll just have to see how it affects our bottom line. I mean, she's been in the game without producing... she'll be out now, and let's see if others step up to play.
