I don’t understand why they put him a wheelchair if it’s his back. That doesn’t help the situation.

His back gave out. Depending on to what degree, he could be fine and play Sunday.

I'm not sure when it happen but it was between the dunk and when he fell on his back. He grabbed his back before landing on his back but not right after the dunk.

The real issue here is why the medical staff let him play. They have to protect players from themselves.

Where?

Detroit showed a replay saying Suggs hurt his back and then showed him falling on the ground grabbing his back. Whether it was before or after, that seemed to be the big issue of it.

He did like the play after the dunk to play it off like that's not what caused the strain.

Depends what he has done but I’m thinking a couple of weeks at least. I know he’s dramatic but I don’t think he’s pulling a Paul Pierce tonight.

He hurt his back prior to dunk, I think the commenters mentioned this.

On the play after that, when we were inbounding the ball, Suggs was grabbing his back.

He just embellishes injuries so much I wouldn't even be surprised to see him back out there in the 2nd half. Fingers crossed tho

sometimes getting onto the stretcher is too painful so to just sit him down and wheel him off to get some treatment is easier

Please don't let Jalen come back in the second half, even if he insist. But I pray that whatever his injury is, it has a quick recovery.

I don't think with that. He couldn't stand. We also def wouldn't play him. Hoping it's a stinger but anything messing with someone's back is a potential career changer.

He should sit a couple of weeks or month to let his strain heal.
