Eric Bledsoe: Could be out until All-Star break

Bledsoe (knee) could be sidelined until after the All-Star break, Brian Windhorst of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

The Suns still haven't announced the results of the MRI that Bledsoe underwent Sunday morning, but those familiar with the point guard's condition seem to believe that a multi-week absence could be on tap. The long-term loss of Bledsoe would likely doom the Suns' chances of capturing the eighth seed in the Western Conference, as the 25-year-old is in the midst of a career-best campaign, averaging 20.4 points, 6.1 assists, four rebounds, and two steals across 34.2 minutes per contest. Expect the Suns to make an announcement soon regarding the extent of Bledsoe's injury along with a possible return timetable.
