Don't know how good this guys track record is though?

Just from the look of it 5 weeks break minimum.

Looked worse than I sprained my ankle and I haven't played a soccer game in 6 week now. Only 1 week back in training, too.

Lavine dont brake the flow as Morea do. I say Put Lavine in the starting lineup, and see what happends, we have to take the best of the worst situation, and for me developing Lavine is a good thing right now, he can Pass and defend, and dont play iso game as Mo is doing lately.

You're in for a rude awakening if you think that Lavine is gonna run a good offense. Did you see him play in preseason?

I didnt say good, i say better than Morea, as he is not selfish and is good passing the ball, i believe he is more of a SG, but we only have these 2 players to sub Rubio, and i dont think is a bad time to give him minutes so he can grow as an NBA player.

Oh, I agree that he should give him NBA minutes. Lavine averaged 2 assist per game on college, and averaged 4 or 5 in summer league in 30 minutes...I don't know what track record we have for him passing well the ball.

I'm not excited for this situation but hopefully he learns to run capably an NBA offense.

The third-degree ankle sprain is the most serious:
Total rupture of a ligament
Walking may not be possible
Severe pain initially and substantial swelling
May require surgery

A quick google search tells me that if it is a third degree sprain; he will be out a long long time and as m2002brian said, may require surgery.
