From the New York Times:

The description of Lee’s lower right leg injury has been modified again. After a new series of tests, Lee said, doctors are now calling it a bone bruise, with a strained peroneal tendon. The team had called the injury a stress reaction — which implies that it happened gradually. But Lee said doctors are now “trying to stay away from the word stress,” because it appears that the injury was caused by a single incident — when Lee landed awkwardly in a Feb. 23 game against Milwaukee.

so I guess they did misdiagnose him after all. huzzah.
edit: do you think they're trying to not call it a stress reaction so it doesn't look like they missed it like they did with Craw?

I think the Knicks should not have a medical staff. The players would get much better care if they went and sought out their own physicians.

I'm telling you. Damn just bad news everytime you log on.

Yeah, I'm no orthopedic doc or sports med but I think most of the gen med residents at our hospital could do a better job. That stomach bug thing is just pathetic.
