Greg Oden initially planned to sit out next season to heal his oft-injured knees.
He called me, and he was kind of excited, Odens agent, Mike Conley, said. I think hes motivated
. He wants to play. He had said he wanted to take this season off, but hes backed off from that
. Hes open to playing this season. I think he will play this season.
Conley said seven teams have expressed interest in Oden.
We want to get to the point where hes more healthy and can show teams what he can do (in workouts), Conley said. Theres still no timetable, and thats the beauty of him being on his own. He doesnt have to give anybody a timetable.''
