Sean’s Knee May or May not Hold Up
Sean May is hefty. He needs to lose weight. The tough, intimidating force whom we witnessed dominate on his way to becoming an NCAA champion is somewhere beneath his exterior.
May has had 3 surgeries on his right knee. His career games played amass to only one full season at 82 over 4 years in the NBA.
He sat out the entire 2007-08 campaign.

He played only 24 games last year.
Greg Oden is the best thing since sliced bread when compared to Sean May.
He discusses the microfracture surgery in his interview with the Sacramento Bee:
“I feel great, the best I have felt in a long time, All of the doctors I have talked to and players that went through microfracture like me, like Amare Stoudemire, told me that the thing I have on my side is youth.”
May is sort of young at 25, 2 years away from what is considered to be entering one’s prime. In today’s NBA, young is considered to be 19-22, not 25.
He needs to lose some weight. Make that a lot of weight. We are not talking about the traditional 5 pounds anyone could afford to lose on any given day. The man lists at 266. He has a troubled, documented past with his weight.
In a world where NBA players lie to add inches to their height, Sean May lies down about his weight.
Standing 6’9” and weighing 266 pounds is a BMI level of 28.5. That places May in the overweight region of BMI, almost flirting with obese.
And we are all scratching our heads as to why this kids knee keeps blowing out? Hmmm?
Ask any professional athlete what is the most important thing to staying fit, and odds are the first thing you will hear is “diet”.
There have been reports he has done so. If he stays on course he could be a contributor for the uber-young Kings.
Sean MAY end up proving his fat detractors wrong, or he could be Robert “Tractor” Traylor 2.0.
