Yeah, didn't want to jinx it but that goose-egg that showed up on his hand was identical to the one that I got when I fractured my fourth meta-tarple, which is the foot bone adjacent to the pinky toe. That's a bummer.
For the record, I don't think they brought him back too soon. I had a very similar injury but in my foot, like I said, and I have a pretty physical job. I went back after a month or so. The timing was right. The problem is that the bone remains only mostly healed for quite a while, and KLove's job is not "pretty physical" it's super physical. You couldn't keep him out until now, that's just nuts, but you can't tell him to take it easy out there, either. You kind of have to roll the dice a little on this one, and they did and crapped out. It's a tough life.
Here's hoping they make the best of it with a trade. As long as RR keeps getting healthy. AK stays healthy (
), DWill keeps getting better and Shved and Pek keep scoring, this team will stay in the hunt, and that's the best we can hope for right now.
