now that lamar has joined luke and jordan on the inactive list...

is this powell and mihm's chance to showcase themselves?

at least, theyll get valuable PT until lamar comes back from a hyperextended knee

how long is a hyperextended knee anyways?? day-to-day?? or at least a couple of weeks?

Most likely we'll see the both of them get more playing time to help rest our starters. Or if we're desperate, we might need to sign someone soon...

His injury doesn't seem severe - they said they'll do an MRI on him today to see the extensiveness of the injury... I would say at least 2-3 weeks..

I don't know how severe it is, but a badly hyper-extended knee can take at least 2 weeks to recover from. If it's not that serious, then I'd say about a week until he's able to get back on the court.

Unfortunately, we play 6 games over the next week and a half, so hopefully he's back sooner rather than later. I would love to have him back for the Cleveland game at the latest.

We need LO, hopefully he can return soon. He fulfilling his promise to Vic The Brick before he got hurt. Go to the AM 570 website for that interview. :rofl:

Powell's activity level on the boards is off the charts. If he got starters minutes, I guarantee you he would lead the league in rebounds per game.
