Caldwell-Pope will miss this week's preseason games at
Charlotte, Orlando and Atlanta and will be re-evaluated upon the
team's return to Detroit next week.
Caldwell-Pope suffered the injury during the third quarter of
Sunday's 91-89 preseason loss against the Washington Wizards.
Caldwell-Pope, a second-year player, was having a solid
preseason, averaging 16.7 points.
--Milwaukee Bucks rookie center Johnny O'Bryant has a grade III
sprain of the medial collateral ligament in his right knee, the
team announced.
The team did not announce a timetable for his possible return,
but those injuries typically require six to eight weeks of
recovery time.
--The Miami Heat waived center Chris Johnson and guard Reggie
Williams.
Johnson, who was signed as a free agent on Sept. 26, appeared in
one game with the Heat this preseason totaling one rebound, one
assist and a block in six minutes of action. Williams, who was
signed as a free agent on Aug. 12, did not appear in a game with
Miami.
