Elton Brand of the Philadelphia 76ers will have plenty of time to go over his March Madness odds, as the former Blue Devil who won Player of the Year honors at Duke is being shut down for the rest of the season. It could be karma as Brand allegedly convinced Baron Davis to sign with the Los Angeles Clippers, only to sign with the 76ers a few days later. It’s been an awful couple of seasons for the big power forward, who was sidelined all of last season with an Achilles injury, and now it’s a separated shoulder that is forcing him to go under the knife once again.
The best part? He can afford nice suits while sitting on the sidelines, as he makes an average of $29.1 million a season. I need his agent (but not his luck).
