TUALATIN, Ore. - Portland center Greg Oden is OK after rolling his right ankle during the first day of training camp.
"He's fine,'' Trail Blazers coach Nate McMillan said Wednesday. "Everybody, he's fine. He's OK.''
Oden, who missed all of his rookie season because of knee surgery, was injured Tuesday during a drill while pushing fellow center Joel Przybilla for rebounding position.
After walking with a slight limp, he finished practice by riding a stationary bike.
