PORTLAND, Ore. – The Portland Trail Blazers unexpectedly activated guard Brandon Roy on Saturday shortly before the start of their playoff game against the Phoenix Suns.
Roy had arthroscopic surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee two days before the start of the playoffs. Although the team initially said he would not be available for the first round, his recovery time was put at one to two weeks.
The two-time All-Star leads the Blazers with 21.5 points per game.
The Blazers, trailing 2-1 in the series, put forward Dante Cunningham on the inactive list with a stomach virus.
