Oakland, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - The Golden State Warriors could be facing another extended absence from Andrew Bogut. The team announced Thursday that the oft-injured center will be sidelined indefinitely due to swelling in his right knee, with Bogut to undergo platelet-rich plasma therapy to treat the problem. Bogut has missed the Warriors last four games with knee pain. An MRI taken last week revealed chrondomalacia, an inflammation of the patella and deterioration of cartilage, as well as bone edema. Houston Rockets All-Star Dwight Howard missed 11 games earlier this season after also having a PRP procedure performed on his knee. We fully support Andrew in his decision to undergo the PRP treatment, said Warriors general manager Bob Myers. Our number one concern is that Andrew is 100 percent healthy and we will continue to support him in any way we can to make that happen. Injuries have plagued Bogut throughout his 10-year NBA career, and particularly so in recent years. The 2005 No. 1 overall pick was limited to just 12 games by a fractured ankle while with Milwaukee in 2011-12, and played in only 32 after being traded to Golden State the following season while recovering from the break. The native Australian also sat out last years Western Conference quarterfinal series with the Los Angeles Clippers because of a broken rib. Bogut had been healthy for much of this season, starting Golden States first 20 games and helping the Warriors to an NBA-best 21-3 start. The 7-footer has averaged 7.1 points, 9.3 rebounds and 2.2 blocks. Ederson Brazil Jersey .

MONTREAL -- The Edmonton Eskimos built a big enough lead early in the game that it didnt matter what the Montreal Alouettes did in the second half. After taking a 22-point lead over the Als into the dressing room at halftime at Percival Molson Stadium on Friday night, Edmonton staved off Montreals second-half comeback to hold on for the 33-23 victory. The loss extended the last-place Alouettes losing streak to four games. "We played the first half really well," said Eskimos coach Chris Jones, who spent six years as a defensive coach for the Als, from 2002 to 2007. "If you can mirror the first and second half, that would be great. Unfortunately. We came out flat in the second half and let a good football team hang around. It was closer than what it should have been." With Edmonton leading the Alouettes 30-8 at the half, Montreal was seemingly en route to a third consecutive blowout loss - the Als lost back-to-back games by a combined score of 72-10 coming into Friday. But the Eskimos only scored three second-half points, giving a desperate Montreal side a glint of hope in the process. Down by three scores, Montreal (1-5) put their best drive together at the start of the third quarter. The Als made five consecutive first downs - as many as they converted in the first half - for a 53-yard drive that lasted more than six minutes. But they couldnt find the end zone, and were forced to settle for the field goal. After cutting Edmontons lead to 16, Montreal was given a small lifeline early in the fourth quarter when Eskimos kick returner Jamal Miles dropped the ball after a punt. The fumble was recovered by Montreal at Edmontons 30. After yet another two-and-out, the Als kicked a field goal to make the score 30-17. With their team at the bottom of the standings with the worst record in the Canadian Football League, Alouettes fans let the team know they were unhappy with the decision to go for the three points instead of the touchdown. "That was an excellent call," said Als coach Tom Higgins, defending his teams choice. "Anybody who thinks differently, thats okay, thats their opinion. It was third-and-ten. Two two-point converts? Thats probably not going to happen. It doesnt play to your favour. The decision, in my mind, is absolutely correct." It was all too little, too late for the Alouettes, who finally found the end zone in the games final minute - the teams first touchdown in 12 quarters. Brandon Whitaker scored his second TD of the year at 14:31 of the fourth quarter after completing a 43-yard pass-and-run. "We didnt give up," said Higgins of the second-half attempted comeback. "We didnt beat ourselves, we didnt take foolish penalties, we caught the ball a little bit better, and we were able to get some first downs. We came out and played a lot better, disciplined football, the way it needs to be played." Eskimos quarterback Mike Reilly threw for two touchdowns and 208 yards, with 171 of those coming in the first half. Edmontons offense was stagnant iin the second, punting the ball away five times to Montreals two.dddddddddddd The Eskimos held onto the ball for just 12 minutes in the second half. "For whatever reason, we couldnt get anything going offensively in the second half," said Reilly, who threw his only interception of the game after the restart. "We left our defence out on the field way too long. Luckily we did enough to get the win, we built up a good lead in the first half." Now in first place in the West Division, Edmonton (5-1) got off to the quick start it was looking for, as the visiting team opened the score just 2:28 into the game. On a drive that started at their own 51-yard line, the Eskimos moved down the field quickly. After a 20-yard run by Kendial Lawrence, Reilly found his running back all alone on the edge of the end zone for the 35-yard touchdown. After an Edmonton field goal and a couple of singles by Montreals Sean Whyte to make the score 10-2 for the Eskimos, the Als capped off back-to-back drives with field goals of their own to bring it to within two. John White restored Edmontons comfortable lead with a 58-yard run at 4:52 of the second quarter to make it 17-8 - by far the longest run of the game. The TD was Whites second of the season. The Eskimos kept rolling in the second quarter, adding another 10 points before the half. Reilly finished off a 93-yard drive when he connected with Adarius Bowmans diagonal run for the 25-yard score at 12:23. Bowman leads the league with 433 receiving yards. Despite the poor first-half showing by Montreals offence, Higgins decided to keep quarterback Troy Smith in the game. Smith was pulled in the second half of Montreals previous two losses. On Friday, Smith went 8-for-18 and threw for 102 yards in the first half, including a 52-yarder to Duron Carter. Smith, who has started all six games for Montreal this season, ended the match 20-for-45 with 231 yards. With another poor performance, Smiths job could be at risk. "We need to win games, and if its somebody else that can help us out, then thats the way to go," said Smith. "Ive prepared for the worse, and hope for the best. The whole time Im here, Ill continue to do that. There are multiple guys on your team for a reason." The end of the game was marred when linebacker Eric Samuels was taken off the field on a stretcher after taking a hit to the head. Samuels laid motionless on the field for several minutes before showing any signs of consciousness. Notes: The West has now won 14 of 16 inter-divisional matches this season. à Als slotback S.J. Green (ribs) was not in the lineup. à Montreal has yet to win a game this season when trailing after the first quarter (0-4). à The attendance at Percival Molson Stadium was 20,054. à The Alouettes go on the road for the next two games, with games against the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Winnipeg Blue Bombers over the next two weeks. à The Eskimos welcome the Ottawa Redblacks to Commonwealth Stadium next Friday.
