PORTLAND, Ore. (AP)—Portland Trail Blazers center Greg Oden(notes) is apologizing for nude photos that have surfaced on the internet.

Oden says the pictures, taken with his cell phone and sent to a former girlfriend, were taken about 1 1/2 years ago. A friend told the 21-year-old Tuesday morning that the pictures were making the rounds on the internet.

“I would like to apologize to everybody: Portland, the fans, the organization,” Oden told reporters at the Blazers practice facility. “It was very embarrassing.”

Oden is out for this season after fracturing his left kneecap during a game against the Houston Rockets on Dec. 5. He averaged 11.1 points and 8.5 rebounds in 21 starts.

The 7-foot-center was the No. 1 pick in the 2007 NBA draft out of Ohio State. He missed his rookie season after have microfracture surgery on his right knee.

Well after seeing the photos of Greg Oden's wang (NSFW) I certainly don't feel as bad for him that he may never get to play again. I guess he could always have a job in porn but he'd probably hurt his knee doing that too.

Overall I don't think anyone is too upset with Oden. He just needs to learn he's a famous athlete and noone he knows can be trusted. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned...who also has a picture of your wang.
