Meniscus surgery this early in his career isn't good. It eventually did Amare Stoudemire and Wally Szczerbiak in.

IIRC Stoudemire had Microfracture surgery early in his career (year 3).
I can also point to Tim Duncan who had a Meniscus tear early in his career (year 3) and we all know how his career turned out.
All athletes aren't the same.

Good points. I just mentioned those two specifically because it was a meniscus injury for each that started to tear their knee cartilage up. And yes, every athlete is different.

Even still those were productive until they were about 30. If we get 7 more years from Deandre, That's a career.

If it needs to be season ending so be it.
No need to rush him back on the court. I'm leaning towards it being season ending but I hope I'm wrong.

Cam has to step up. Enough of all the 3s and take it the rack. He obviously needs to add mass and strength. No rush for Hunter this season, just gives more minutes to Bogdan and Dunn when they come back.
