Hornets await word on how long West will be out

By Anthony Caruso III

The New Orleans Hornets got good news back on David West.

West injured his knee on Thursday night, which looked like a potentially severe knee injury. He was taken off the court in a wheelchair. Early reports alleged that West blew out his knee.

West has had X-rays taken on his knee. The X-rays have come back negative. An MRI is scheduled for the morning to make an official announcement on how long he will be out.

The reports after the X-rays say that he has left knee trauma. That’s better than having an MCL or ACL tear.
