"It is a non-displaced fracture, which is less severe and may have limited any tendon or ligament damage. He also suffered two cuts, one over his left eye that needed to be closed with two stitches. He also suffered a cut in his mouth and was treated by a denist.
Despite all of that, he actually came out and took part in warmups for the second half to help boost the spirits of his teammates. Though he most certainly is out and probably will be for some time depending on the severity of the break.
But he just told Craig Sager of TNT that the Bulls doctors said he will not need surgery and that he can wear a splint and play in the upcoming West Coast trip. That sounds nuts, but what is what he said. Of course, he hasn't talked to the Cavs doctors yet and may be in a little shock."

"So who knows? Wallace should be back by the Lakers game on Monday, but Z and Delonte probably won't. Now we get to see how resliliant this team can be.
LeGame - Bad fourth quarter. LeBron missed something like 13 shots in a row and the offense looked a lot like the old Mike Brown "Give the ball to LeBron and everyone watch" Offense of years past. REALLY bad overtime. The game was over when the Luol Deng scored two straight wide open threes from the quarter on the same play. Nobody was even close to him. It was just plain ugly.
LeHighlight - Sure as hell wasn't during the game. But at the start of the second quarter, Craig Sager asked Mike Brown how he would deal with replacing Delonte. He said that they had a lot of guards who could play Bugs' minutes, then he mentioned Tarence Kinsey BEFORE Sasha Pavlovic. Unfortunately, he remembered to call Sasha's number in the second half.
Larry Hughes - Only so I can deny him the "Le" prefix because we all know he will never deserve such an honor.

Postgame Quotes:
"I will start for Delonte. Then we win many games because my offense is my defense" - Pavlovic
"I'm hoping to get traded back to DC. They stink, so I won't have to worry about actually winning games. I can go back to making terrible shot selections and air-balling 18-footers. Plus, the time I miss every year for injuries won't look so bad playing next to Gilbert." - Larry
