Nobody could tell at the time, honest mistake not some big issue.

I tore my MCL years ago out dancing with a really hot lady, walked her home, spent the night, and in the moring, said, "Let's have breakfast before I go to the hospital." She went with me, and the doctor told me 4-8 weeks of physical therapy. She volunteered to rub it and make it feel better, so I did ok.

A case of too much hops. Feel bad for him. This time was super important for his development as I think he was on pace for 15 to 20 minutes next year. Bummer.

If Mitch doesn’t work out (though I think he will), Precious will get more time at center and perhaps an act of God will see Pacom get some wing minutes then.

Last I checked torn meniscus will take a player out for a whole season like Westbrook and latest the rook McCain

Now he's only out for 4-6 weeks?

This is really sad. I loved his energy last night and the last few games. Ideally if Mitch stays healthy Huk still could have been a nice backup for him, giving Thibs the rim protection he likes. Now, even if he does come back in 3-6 weeks he won't contribute this spring. But lots of upside for next year
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Meanwhile Jericho Sims is thriving.

really liked what I saw from Huk. Hope he recovers well.
Can we get one of those injury/hardship things? We could use every cent to sign a min level player...

Sims as a Buck -- 62 min 14 rebs 2 pts. I would have thought a guy 6'10" with a 44" vertical would be more productive.

Please rush Mitch back since every win counts.
