    Going by how poorly Jock's first half of the season went after a similar injury during the offseason, I wonder if he'll even be able to move well enough to make it worth it.

    Same thought here. I hope they’re being very conservative about him and Cam returning

    Here’s the question — if Sengun comes back, who goes to the bench? Personally, I’d love to see a FVV / Green / Thompson / Smith / Sengun lineup. Not sure if the spacing would work, but that’s a lot of athleticism and size on the floor.

    Jabari also looked bad after his ankle injury.

    Not worth it. Shut him down for the season and let him heal.

    If he is healthy and wants to play let him these are meaningful games, he has all summer to heal if he reinjures it.

    Heck he could reinjure it in a pickup game - if he is healthy he plays.

    If he is healthy, he should play.

    Even if you are worried about needing to minute restrict him or the fit, that is fine. Give him the Ginobli treatment. He comes off the bench and is the hub for that group when Green is resting. It even works out spacing wise, because the bench unit/rotation has fewer non-shooters with Bullock and Green finding their range again, even if a bit inconsistent.

    Then depending on the match up and the game script, he can close games as needed.
