Mbenga cleared

DJ Mbenga received medical clearance to rejoin the active roster tonight for Game 2. He sat out Game 1 after undergoing emergency laser surgery on his left eye Saturday night. He was fitted for a pair of protective glasses. They're similar to the ones Amare Stoudemire of the Phoenix Suns wears during games. Mbenga joined Ron Artest in wearing blond dye jobs. Mbenga called his Congo Cash. Artest declined to explain his many purple streaks.
