No surgery is a good thing. Hopefully during his break he can work on his stamina/conditioning. Maybe a left handed jump hook too :)

Jonas Valanciunas saw hand specialist Dr. Herb von Schroeder (Toronto Western) on Sat. Surgery will not be required; expected out 4-6 wks.

I've had nothing but bad experiences with the orthopaedic guys at Western. Hopefully this hand guy is better than the surgeons I've seen. Total clowns. Even the radiologists I've dealt with there have been pricks.

I wondering how severe and painful his injury is in general? I mean how operational his hand is now? I never broke my hand so I have no idea, can he even use it? Because if not, so geez, you cant do a thing without your right hand.

I've cracked/broken bones in my off-hand a couple times before, a middle fingertip and the pinkie-side base of my palm, and the blood just swishing around the hand hurts like hell. Running sucks, even. Then again, Kobe played a couple years with a mangled finger. The one thing that separates us us toughness.

I guess it has been 3 weeks, perhaps he needs another 3 weeks?

Nope not I. There was a question about how long he would be out if he needed surgery, but I didn't raise it.

Lets hope the trainers were able to slip him some HGH to speed up the healing process and give him a little lift for the 2nd half of the season.

Go wraps!

If he can start understanding those offensive plays (off ball situation), that would be great. I don't think he needs his hand for those positioning, but of course, we want to be cautious.
