**Croshere Update**

Croshere To Sit Another Week
Pacers use caution with forward in wake of 2nd concussion in less than 1 month
February 7, 2006
By Mike Wells

Indiana Pacers forward Austin Croshere will miss at least the next three games while he recovers from his second concussion in a month.
"He'll be re-evaluated next Monday," Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said Monday. "If things look good, there will be a chance he can play (Feb. 15 against Milwaukee). It's the combination of the frequency of the concussions and his symptoms. It's something you can't rush."
Croshere hasn't played since suffering a concussion Jan. 31 against Washington when he collided with Wizards forward Antawn Jamison. Croshere also suffered a concussion Jan. 8 when he collided with teammate Jeff Foster.
Croshere, who had never suffered a concussion before last month, attended Saturday's game against Detroit but had a difficult time focusing in midst of the bright lights and noise.
"This is two concussions within a month, which is a warning sign," Carlisle said. "We have to make sure we're careful with it."
Croshere won't participate in drills until at least Thursday, when he resumes light cardiovascular work. The Feb. 15 game is the Pacers' last before the All-Star break.
Croshere, who has started 25 games this season, is averaging 8.7 points and 5.9 rebounds. Jeff Foster will likely continue to start at power forward.

Re: **Croshere Update**
We shouldn't be in a rush to get Croshere back, I like Pollard and Foster starting in the frontcourt.

Re: **Croshere Update**
Do we get cap relief if Austin turns into Rain Man?

Well, they have been hitting the boards. I'd prefer Granger and Foster, but like Carlisle says, "it's not who starts, but who finishes." As long as our Young Gunz--Granger, Harrison and Fred--get their burn, I'm cool with this line-up.

Yeah, Granger and Foster would be nice to see, and I'm sure it will happen soon enough. Pollard will probably come down with some back spasms soon.

Only a matter of time... but I do remember hearing Rick say a couple of games ago... that Pollard's injury actually gets better when he moves around more... I wonder to what point it gets better... and at what point is too much?..

Croshere update
Forward Austin Croshere, out because of two concussions in less than a month, was on the court before practice Thursday, but he mainly has done light cardio work and rested.
There is a chance he won't return until after the All-Star break.
