Andrew Bynum’s latest, most worrying left knee self-diagnosis: ‘Cartilage is missing’

[FaTaL]

"Health is going to be an issue. There's nothing I can really do about it. It's arthritis in the knees. Cartilage is missing. That's not going to regrow itself. Maybe in the future, the next three to five years, there may be something out there that really does help. For right now, it's a waiting game."

I don't know too much about either injury. But if there's no cartilage in the knees, what's the difference between his condition & Brandon Roy's?

It's going to require knee replacement to fix it.

Knee replacement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm probably going to need this in the future. I've been doing heavy squats for over 20 years.
