Andre Roberson of the Oklahoma City Thunder is close to returning to the floor after a two-year absence due to a serious knee injury.

Roberson has been recovering from a major knee injury, which has turned out to be a lot more serious than initially anticipated.

“I’m kinda past the rehab stage. I’m almost to the point where — I should be playing, honestly. But I’m still taking it a day at a time until I get back into our medical staff’s hands and get reevaluated.

Just staying patient through it all and knowing that the light is right there at the end of the tunnel…It’s definitely been a long journey and it’s coming to an end,” Roberson explained, via Moke Hamilton of Thunder Wire.
