Andrew Bynum said on Monday that his knees are feeling "minimal" pain and is hoping to return "around the All-Star break." Bynum said that his knees are "not hurting," and although he admitted to not having an exact timetable, the idea that he's targeting a return in about a month is an indication that he's made real progress in his rehab. He's yet to do straight line running on the court or go through contact drills, so we're not out of the woods just yet. Bynum is also reportedly in good shape despite not playing yet this season.
