If you hadn’t heard yet, Phoenix’s Amare Stoudemire is out for at least four months (maybe even longer) because of a microfracture in his knee. Obviously, that injury is not only important to fans who follow teams in the highly competitive Western Conference, but is also important to fantasy league players. Without question, Yao will move up one rung in fantasy league drafts for centers, right behind Shaq.

As much as I didn’t like Stoudemire during his cocky rookie year…the NBA suffers during his absence.
