The last thing Eddy Curry needs is time away from fat camp and that’s exactly what happened. Curry reported to camp out of shape (surprise), throwing up in his first practice and now has some kind of bacterial infection probably caused by his allergy to exercise. And you thought Baron Davis needed Jenny Craig.
“Eddy Curry missed yesterday’s first two practices of training camp and could be out for the weeklong training camp here after being felled by a bacterial infection Monday night in the team hotel, Knicks officials said. Curry was taken to Saratoga Hospital for evaluation yesterday. The Knicks won’t know if he’ll participate this week until later today. Curry, diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat three years ago, had a high fever and vomited most of Monday night. Mike D’Antoni’s speedball offense may not suit Curry anyhow. Curry came into camp in mediocre shape and is no lock to be the starter.”
