Seattle SuperSonics center Robert Swift was cleared for full contact Monday, and he should be ready when training camp begins in September.

Team spokesman Tom Savage confirmed Swift has been cleared by doctors. Swift won?t have his first official practice until training camp begins.

Dr. Steven Lombardo of California, who operated on Swift?s knee, gave him the final OK.

More than likely Swift will come back to Seattle in the near future to continue workouts, and will participate in scrimmages with other Sonics players in town at the Furtado Center until the start of camp.
