Mutombo says career is over: Houston Rockets center Dikembe Mutombo said his lengthy career is finished after a knee injury knocked him out of the Rockets' playoff game Tuesday night against the Trail Blazers. "For me, basketball is over," he said. Mutombo, an 18-year NBA veteran, appeared to get tangled with Portland center Greg Oden and came down hard on his left leg late in the first quarter of Game 2 and did not return. He stayed prone on the court under the Blazers' basket for several moments before he was taken away by stretcher. A preliminary examination revealed a knee strain. Afterward in Houston's locker room, the 7-foot-2 veteran was on crutches and fighting back tears. Mutombo, the league's oldest player at 42, will be examined by doctors in Houston on Wednesday. "Dikembe is one of the statesmen of this league," teammate Shane Battier said. "There's not a better guy. To see him in pain is tough to see. He cares so much about this game that he doesn't want to end his career like that. That's the tragedy of it, too."

"I've had a wonderful 18 years of staying injury-free, so I just want to go out with my head up, no regrets," he said. Mutombo's days of having Fantasy value will end if he does in fact retire.

C Dikembe Mutombo faces a long rehab after his knee surgery, but he said that even had he not been hurt in the first round of the playoffs, he was content with his decision to retire, with none of the second thoughts he had heading into previous offseasons. 66//2009
