Cleveland Cavaliers' Anderson Varejao talks with reporters outside the locker room before a game against the Atlanta Hawks, Wednesday in Cleveland. Varajao needs surgery to repair a muscle that split near his right knee during a game against the Toronto Raptors on Dec. 18, and could cause him to miss two more months, a major setback for a young Cleveland team struggling through another miserable season.
