injury updates

Point guard Augustin has been out with severe inflammation in his right big toe since a loss in New Jersey Jan. 22. He says he’s feeling dramatically better, and might play as soon as a Monday home game against the Philadelphia 76ers.


Henderson suffered a hamstring strain in the loss at Portland, and has missed the past two games.

“I’m not good enough to play yet, but it’s better every day,’’ said Henderson.


Maggette said he hopes to play sometime this week or next, but is cautious about risking re-injury.


so mags injury, which was initially announced as 2-4 weeks is now looking like 5-7 weeks. he is living up to his rep as a player who milks injuries.

Be interesting to see how we go with a full squad.

We will still be crap, but I think we might be able to get a win here or there.

I know we really aren't in a position to erase players from the Bobcats history books, but I'm not at all against pretending like Maggette never suited up in the ol' blue and orange

WBTV 3 reported at 6 that Silas wants Maggette to play tomorrow night (Lord I hope not!) Maggette himself though says it may be the Clippers or 6ers game before he's ready. Take your time Corey!

He's not winning himself many fans among his team mates with his sitting out and taking his sweet time to come back - this I know for a fact.

maggette seems like a diva. more concerned with looking good than winning. has he ever cared about winning? there is a reason the guy is a loser everywhere he goes.

but, we need his selfish ass because tyrus is a total trainwreck at small forward. and at the very least, he rebounds.

As long as he can hit a few shots, get to the line a lot, rebound, and defend a little, he'll be a good addition for 20 minutes a game until he's fully healthy. Ease him back into playing his 30-35 minutes.

I'd rather just ease him on out the door! :nod:

UPS is starting to break out. Would rather see him continue to get minutes to see whether his improvement is legit.

henderson should be back on wednesday. however, maggette got hurt again. shocker.

i guess silas gets to keep using his excuse of not having all 15 players healthy at the same time.
