Collins’ knee will not require surgery

By J-W Staff Reports     Mar 27, 2007

Kansas University freshman point guard Sherron Collins will not need surgery on his left knee.

An MRI taken on Monday has revealed Collins has a severe case of patellar tendinitis, which will require rest, not surgery, coach Bill Self indicated.

“It is extremely inflamed, but should calm down through rehab and rest,” Self said. “The swelling and tendinitis created some problems for

him down there, but if we get it under control, he should be fine. He does have a very, very bad case of it. He’ll have to take some time off.”

Self said he didn’t know the exact amount of time off, but Collins would be fine for next season.
