Brandon Miller out for the year probably

Not injured on any singular play last game either so he’s either been playing hurt or got hurt in practice, with our medical staff either one is very possible

How do you know it wasn't hurt on a play in a game?


I meant he never left any of the games with this injury, so either he got injured on the very last play last game as he played thru the final whistle iirc or he was playing already injured, or he got injured outside of the game. Kind of the only possible options. The least likely being he was injured the last play of the last game

Almost certain it happened in Utah. First, he didn’t score in the entire 4th and missed a couple shots badly. I didn’t see when it happened but I do remember him shaking his hand after a miss.

Second, the Hornets statement indicated that the injury was suffered during the game. But most importantly, of any team in all of professional sports we would absolutely be the most likely to let our players continue to play with torn wrists lol.

Probably told him he had to wait for Mann’s checkup so they could get the 2 for 1 special on the MRI

Is it still a monster game when your opponent gets 40?

It’s crazy how good Mark is with how much he still has untapped in his skill set and body

When i keep saying we need two players better than Melo if we want this team to really compete one day btw, I'm including Mark as one of those potential guys for sure. I just hope I was as wrong about his long term health as I appear to have been rn. Mark keeps progressing, we get some lotto luck, still would take a swing on Zion tbh. We could eventually reach that talent level we need to be a playoff team even with our injury luck. The fact that we’ll probably be lucky to get Brandon back at the same level he’s been at this season next year and seeing that he’s far from a good second option guy, we just need more offensive talent badly

Is it not a monster game when you have 19 and 19, but you can't play 48 minutes?
