The amount of time required for restoration of normal performance capabilities varies in proportion to the severity of injury to the syndesmotic ligaments and the interosseus membrane between the tibia and fibula. An athlete who has a moderate-severity high ankle sprain may be capable of returning to full participation at two to three weeks following injury, but persistence of functional limitations for six to eight weeks is not uncommon for more severe cases. https://winninghoops.com/article/recovering-from-high-ankle-sprains/ Over the last six seasons, the average missed time for an isolated high ankle sprain is roughly 10 games. However the variability is high and a quicker return is possible. For example, earlier this season Indiana’s Myles Turner was able to return to action from a high ankle sprain after just three days and one game lost. http://instreetclothes.com/2018/06/02/understanding-klay-thompsons-high-ankle-sprain/ Would rather not go against Woj, but I won't believe it until I see it anyway.
He is 36 years old and the Lakers only chance of wining a ring. They won’t rush him back. A fully healthy Lebron and Davis can and will win from any seed in the playoffs.
Curious to see how the goal posts change to give someone other than Harden the MVP again...with Embiid and LeHGH out.
Hmmm....this is good stuff. If Woj is saying 6-8....then its likely the MRI saw that it was a relatively bad sprain.I guess depending on how much of a genetic freak Bron is, we shall find out.
Its very possible that the Lakers could lose all these games and be out of the playoffs though. 6-8 weeks is a lot.
Duncan Robinson: James harden is the hardest time player to guard in the NBA on the long shot podcast.
After seeing even Lebron go down to a freak injury I've even more amazed that Harden has avoided such disasters all this time. It was refreshing for a Rockets fan who are used to such a cursed existence.
Harden is going to be gassed by the playoffs. At some point Nash needs to just sit him. You are the HC for ****s sake.
If it's down to Harden winning MVP I think the voters will end up just foregoing the MVP altogether this year because of COVID-19.
Harden plays for Houston. Is fat. Harden plays for BKN. Is in great shape. Griffin plays for Detroit. Can't dunk anymore. Griffin plays for BKN. First shot as a Net is a dunk. lol.
Cwood was legit bad. Lebron’s seemed worse that it prolly is. He tends to exaggerate things. He’ll take the time off and come back in the playoffs and whine his way to a championship... my prediction.
Ehh, doubtful even with Lebron and AD healthy, Nets are gonna beat them. This is just significantly lower their odds.
