Granger, who scored nine points, hit the floor with 4:38 left in the quarter. He lay face-down for several minutes while medical personnel attended to him. Finally, a stretcher was brought out and he was wheeled off the court.

Kings' C Miller out until after All-Star break
Sun, Feb 11, 2007
By Associated Press

SEATTLE -- The Sacramento Kings will be without center Brad Miller until after the All-Star break after pain from a partially torn fascia in his left foot flared up.

Miller was bothered of late by the foot and had an MRI done in Sacramento on Friday. He went through shootaround on Saturday, but doctors determined rest would be the best treatment.

Sacramento head coach Eric Musselman was at a mall getting lunch Saturday when he received a phone call that Miller wouldn't play in Sacramento's last four games before next week's All-Star break.

Shareef Abdur-Rahim started in place of Miller.
