Channing Frye had struggled at times this season and he hopes the 3-6 weeks he will miss due to a severe ankle sprain will help his mental game.  In the previous three games, Frye was averaging 12.3 points and 6.6 rebounds, appearing to reclaim his confidence.

"I just have to use this as an opportunity to get better on the intellectual part of the game," Frye said in the locker room afterward.
