 CHICAGO (AP) - Chicago Bulls center Eddy Curry will miss the rest of the season because of an irregular heartbeat, but doctors are optimistic he'll be able to play again.
Curry will undergo further tests that will take another six weeks, meaning he'll miss the team's first playoff appearance since 1998. Doctors still aren't sure what caused the heart arrhythmia, which hasn't recurred in the last two weeks.
"We've been as diligent as we can to rule out anything possible that would put him at risk," Dr. Kathy Weber, a Bulls' team physician, said at a news conference Thursday night. "We're going to continue to do that until we feel it's safe for him to play."
