Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will miss a significant amount of time due to plantar fasciitis in his right foot.
“Obviously when we’ve got a guy out for maintenance or for rest, it’s easy to be in the moment and wonder why we’re doing that, but I think this makes it very tangible,” Mark Daigneault said Wednesday. “We were trying to avoid this, and obviously we didn’t on this particular case, but this is why we’re being so cautious. If you just look at the information objectively, there’s kind of red flags all over the place.”
Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 23.7 points, 5.9 assists and 4.7 rebounds.
