Ostertag out 4-6 weeks after breaking hand








October 3, 2004

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) -- Sacramento Kings center Greg Ostertag will be out four-to-six weeks after breaking his right hand in a fall at his home Saturday night.

Ostertag signed with the Kings in July after nine seasons with the Utah Jazz. He is expected to be the backup to All-Star center Brad Miller.

The Kings, who have lost key players to significant injuries in each of the last four seasons, also will be without starting guard Doug Christie throughout training camp. Christie is recovering from plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

The Kings depart for a preseason trip to China next week
