Trail Blazers' Fernandez, Przybilla sidelined


Posted Oct 11 2008 12:25AM

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Guard Rudy Fernandez and center Joel Przybilla will not travel with the Portland Trail Blazers for their game in Kansas City against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday night.

Fernandez sprained his left ankle in the Blazers' 110-95 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night. Przybilla has bronchitis.

The team also said that small forward Martell Webster had surgery Thursday to repair a stress fracture in his left foot. He will likely miss eight to 10 weeks.

Webster was injured in the exhibition opener, a 110-81 victory over the Sacramento Kings.
