ESPNRadio reporting that he had eye surgery this morning resulting from an injury Wednesday night vs the Clippers and it will sideline him for the rest of the season
The day after deciding to let the trade deadline pass without making a major money-saving move has turned incredibly costly for the beleaguered Phoenix Suns.
The Suns announced Friday that Amare Stoudemire was forced to undergo eye surgery to repair a partially detached retina suffered in a Wednesday night rout of the Los Angeles Clippers. It is Stoudemire's second eye injury since October and the All-Star forward could miss the rest of the regular season.
Stoudemire's return to physical activity has been estimated at eight weeks by the Suns. He underwent surgery Friday morning, although the club said in a statement that "recovery varies on a case-by-case basis."
