The Sonics first-round draft choice in the 2003 draft has been healthy all season after sitting out all of last year with various shoulder injuries.  A Steven Hunter elbow to the fact last night changed all that.

In a brutal game versus the rival Suns, Nick Collison suffered a broken nose and it is not clear how long he will be out.  Collison's rugged style of play has been instrumental in the Sonic's success this season.  

The injury occurred with 11 minutes left in the second quarter.
