After playing two years of pro ball in Europe, it seems the NBA comeback of Josh Childress will take a bit longer than expected. Signed by the Phoenix Suns last summer, Childress fractured the tip of his finger during their pre-season game against the Golden State Warriors, making him a doubtful starter in their regular season opening game next week. Childress says the worst part of the injury is for it to happen just a few days left before the start of the new season, according to the Arizona Republic.

“It hurts. I'm not going to lie about it. Finger is something you try to play through. It's not a knee or a back or something. . . That (the proximity of the opener) is the worst part about it.”
