Woah. Dude was playing through that? No wonder he was struggling.

Not sure the team is prepared for this loss. Big weight on Franz and Suggs’ shoulders now. Who else on the team can step up?

Isaac to replace him?

Out at least 21 games if he's being reevaluated after 6 weeks. This is a HUGE blow to us. This could take us out of playoff contention.

TDS will get a lot of run. It could be a good thing in the long run. The important thing is that Paolo comes back completely healthy.

Magic is seriously doomed. Are we lotto bound this year?

We could even do Goga at center and Wendell at PF.

I was just thankful it wasn't an injury he couldn't fully come back from. I read the headline, and I was thinking of the worst-case scenario.

Yeah this season is definitely done. We are at best, play in bound. Goodness man, I'm so angry.

a) When did he sustain this injury?

b) The rest of the roster needs to step it up big time, which might actually be good long term

c) this absolutely blows and this season is pretty cooked, even though we should still fight for the play-in.

That’s like 25% of the season or more. Welp. Going to be a tough couple months.
