Redick has broken bone in hand, expected for training camp

Orlando Magic guard J.J. Redick has a broken bone in his right hand, according to the Orlando Sentinel, but the team expects the former Duke star to be ready when it opens training camp Sept. 29.

"We're not sure when it happened," Magic general manager Otis Smith said Friday, according to the newspaper. "It could have happened when he was working out, playing pick-up or when he was playing with USA Basketball.

"I don't expect J.J. to miss any time at all. I'd be surprised if he's not ready for camp."

Smith said Redick, who averaged six points in 42 games as a rookie last season, did not require surgery.

The college All-American's short pro career has been plagued by injury. Last summer, Redick had to deal with a back injury that hampered his preparation for the season as well as a minor tissue tear on the bottom of his left foot.
