Today's paper reported Indiana Pacers forward Danny Granger, the teams leading scorer, will be out for 4 to 6 weeks with a turn plantar fascia. This injury does not require surgery as the plantar fascia cannot be repaired. He will probably be in a walking boot for 4 to 6 weeks and rehabilitation will help reduce inflammation and strengthen the intrinsic muscles of his arch. He will likely need to use a functional orthotic to help stabilize his arch and prevent future foot ailments.
