Boucher update ??? 

Post#1 » by mintsa » Fri Apr 23, 2021 1:11 am

Anything on the knee injury ?

I felt real bad for the kid when he went down.

Maybe no news yet is good news ?

Seems odd that they would have the MRI done the next day. Maybe it's not so serious.

This Blake Murphy tweet suggests that this is his 2nd MRI.

To be completely honest, the way he falls, I've been convinced he'd injure his skinny legs on many occasions this year and luckily he always got up. Hope it's nothing serious.
For lease.

Agreed. Though based on the way he fell and where it appeared there was stress, it looked more like an MCL. Who knows with knees? Damaging anything in there is never good.
The particularly troubling part is that it's his left knee, which is the same one he had ACL surgery on in college.

Likely too much swelling.

From other reports 2nd MRI for clearer results.

Shams just pulled back on last tweet. MRI revealed no major damage.

Shams didn't reveal the grade of the injury.. but assuming its a grade 1 (mild sprain).. we may only see him miss about 2 weeks. A grade 2 injury usually takes 6 weeks (and there are less than 4 left in the season).

I could see them shutting him down for the year. But Boucher is a hard worker, and will want to come back before the season is over (assuming it's a mild sprain). He is the only Raptor to play every game this year. Well up until now.

Don't rush him back, take the full 2 weeks and secure the #7 slot in the lotter.

Great news RE: slim, but they need to be super cautious. Another bad tumble could spell disaster.
