Nelson diagnosed w/ strained patella tendon
Jameer Nelson - G - Orlando Magic
Feb. 22, 2013 - 2:25 AM ET

Jameer Nelson has been diagnosed with a strained patella tendon in his left knee.

Nelson is expected to be reevaluated on Saturday, and it's possible he'll receive an MRI to ensure that no major damage has been done. We think it's safe to say he won't be traded by Thursday's deadline, but if he's forced to miss time, Beno Udrih and E'Twaun Moore would see a boost.
