I thought he had a knee issue? When did he hurt his ankle?

 

EDIT: Nevermind.  I read the AJC article. This sounds like he'll be out for a while.

*sigh*

 

Of course.

Probably 6 to 8 weeks.

Un-freakin-believable.

Well that just sucks ... I have been looking forward to him playing 

[ATLHawks3]

Probably a result of over compensation from his knee issue. Get better KD! We need you healthy for the playoffs.

[Dnice]

All of these broken players...gee whiz.

Football players get arthroscopic knee surgery quite often, often they are back in about a month. Basketball players don't recover from injuries as quickly.

8 weeks would be cool. I did a quick google search and the first link said 6-12 months before returning to high intensity exercise. That would not be cool. Obviously there are different degrees to all of this stuff.

Mostly maintenance procedure, go in and flush out loose bodies.  The 6-8 weeks is more so the incision healing but if they see anything else in there, yea.

A scope is usually 6 to 8 weeks unless something is wrong.

Damn can we get some kind of injury exception? lol. How did he pass his physical?

That's a big blow. The best defensive guard we have. He gave gave Trae so much problems when he was on the Bulls that we traded for him.

He gave Trae so many problems that Trae dropped a 50 burger on him
