EAST LANSING -- Michigan State basketball incoming freshman Delvon Roe, who is near full recovery from right knee surgery, now needs left knee surgery, MSU associate sports information director Matt Larson confirmed today.

The severity of Roe's injury and the timetable for his return are not yet known, but coach Tom Izzo is expected to make a statement later today. Roe, a 6-foot-7 forward from Lakewood, Ohio, is one of the top prospects nationally for the class of 2008.

Roe missed most of his senior season at Lakewood St. Edward High after microfracture surgery on his right knee in December. Izzo has said he expects Roe to challenge for a starting spot on the 2008-09 team
