Isolated trochlear fracture in adults is rare
Uncommon external abdominal oblique muscle strain

Multiple MRI scans over a lifetime pose no known long-term health risks.

From what im understanding of this it's a very uncommon and very broad injury. He'll probably be fine long term. But it looks like hes definitely not coming back this season.

Dennis Smith Jr. just left Madrid. He is reported to be interested in a NBA deal.
What's Reggie Jackson up to now?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection is a biologic therapy that can stimulate healing and enhance repair in certain injuries. PRP often is referred to as an orthobiologic, since it is obtained from a patient’s own blood and centrifuged to increase the concentration of platelets to treat orthopaedic injuries and conditions. PRP injection may be a good alternative treatment in the management of tendon, ligament, muscle, and/or cartilage injury.
A PRP treatment is a relatively simple process: The doctor will draw blood then use a centrifuge to produce PRP. PRP contains a mixture of concentrated platelets, including cytokines and growth factors, and has anti-inflammatory properties. The PRP is injected into an injury site to stimulate the healing process. It can also be injected during a surgical process to augment healing and speed recovery.
PRP has been used for years to treat professional athletes and is now increasingly used to help active adolescents and adults with sports and other orthopaedic injuries.
Reports said he was running at practice but no contact. Why would they let him run if they knew.

To put some dates on this: Suggs went down on Jan 3 and sat ten games. He came back a game where he was not obviously injured new (we all took his 16 minutes played as "minutes restriction"), and sat again from Jan 27. That is when the Magic would have started a battery of tests. There is no way that's not true.
That means the Magic must have know what this injury is for about a month.

Very informative. This is my go-to guy for medical podcasts, and this one was thus super believable!
But: "PRP" is mentioned a bunch without explanation. So I looked that up. If major surgery is the worst case here, the best case is thus:Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection is a biologic therapy that can stimulate healing and enhance repair in certain injuries.

Hopefully, they’ve determined that it’s going to heal, but PRP will help the odds and, perhaps, the time away.
