Blazers' Aldridge leaves with knee injury

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Power forward LaMarcus Aldridge limped off the floor in the first quarter of the Portland Trail Blazers' game against the Oklahoma City Thunder because of a bruised right knee.

A team spokesman said Sunday Aldridge's return is questionable.

Aldridge came out of the game late in the first quarter and did not play in the second period after having his knee taped on the Blazers bench.

He had scored six points, including a two-handed, alley-oop jam from Rudy Fernandez just two Portland possessions before he headed to the bench.
