    I think it did happen during the game and he played through it... they just don't know when. I do remember him coming up a little gimpy at some point in the 2nd half though.

    Yeah, something must have happened in the Rockets game, or could be while he was taking out the trash.

    As long as it is not displaced the fibula is a minor thing can come back and play as soon as the pain is low enough, it is a non weight bearing bone.

    Nurkic is a nice pick up for blazers. He can protect the paint, rebound, score on the block, pass. I wish capella can develop those skills someday i hope

    Bummer for Nurkic but the season is almost over.

    Let us not pretend that the Blazers are just having anything other than a hot stretch.

    That is a nice April fools gold team.

    Capela and Nurkic have 2 different styles of play. If we had Nurkic, it would be game over for the NBA.
