Sloan near end of cage career?

CIUCAGO AP The basketball career of Jerry Sloan, guard for the Chicago Bulls, may be nearing an end.

The former All-Star says he fears the NBA may be over for him. I haven't been able to run since January, he said. There is a serious question whether I can play again. Sloan, 44, will re-enter Passavant Hospital Thursday night, the Bulls announced. He will be placed in a cast for two weeks and then examined again.
