Raptors' Anthony Parker Has Right Hand Surgery
The TORONTO STAR reports "Raptors guard Anthony Parker had surgery yesterday to repair an injured extensor tendon in the middle finger of his right hand. He must wear a cast for three weeks before he can begin rehabilitation. Parker averaged a career-high 12.5 points last season, second only to Chris Bosh on the Raptors. He also averaged 4.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists and became just the third player in team history to start all 82 regular-season games.
