Portland Trail Blazers forward Moe Harkless is struggling to recover from knee surgery and his progress was thwarted again prior to Portland’s preseason matchup with the Phoenix Suns. According to Joe Freeman of The Oregonian, Harkless was in line to play, but knee pain kept him out of the contest, which the Blazers won easily, 116-83.
Moe Harkless said encountered pain again in his left knee during his pregame workout, which led to his late scratch tonight vs. the Suns. "When I went out there, I just didn’t feel right," he said.
