AD injury

Let's pray it is not a 4-to-6 week injury as some have stated on Twitter. That would be a massive blow to our championship hopes.

It's a grade 1 sprain. Should be able to play with the injury.

If he misses any season games with this injury this is ridiculous. I bet it’s nothing. Shut him down for preseason. This better not be serious. Not doing well for his injury prone past.

Not worried, he kept playing after he made that block and hit the backboard, the he came out of the game a bit later.

So many people overreacting to a jammed thumb. He should be just fine by the start of the season.

I'd be a lot more relieved by this if anyone at all in that clip had made a jumper...

As long as he doesn't suffer any major injury, I'm fine with him missing 15-20 games this season due to minor injuries (back spams, ankle, etc)

Makes sense. If we can get an early lead against the Warriors, I would rest Lebron while were at it.
