    I hope it's just a minor ankle sprain. We need Jabari to be healthy.

    After seeing Scoot vs Wembanyama, Jabari being the team player he is decided to "sprain" an ankle.

    He knows his immediate contribution would just be too elite for us to have any chance at sucking enough to be in the running for either of these prospects.

    His big picture outlook and commitment to winning can't be understated.

    Depressing. Takes away a lot of the anticipation of these preseason games.

    they should just give him the season off so he can work out and gain weight once that sprain is healed

    Why would Rocket fans be depressed when there are so many other things to be looking forward to among the rest of the roster. Surely we dont have JABARI ONLY FANS do we??? :rolleyes:

    I know Wemby looked good but someone tell Stone we don’t have to tank preseason games.

    Top 2 set obviously regardless of who is picking.

    Thompson twins would be ideal outside of that but I really like Anthony Black and Cam Whitmore as well.

    Gimme a couple of NCAA games and I'll be more accurate (like last year :D)

    I will say: after 3 full seasons and a possible 246 games, Wemby will not crack 200 games played. No way.

    Well, there goes the season. Time to cheer for Wembanyama/Scoot.

    I blame your enthusiasm. Bad karma and you know better.
