Just found this picture. Does anyone know if he's really injured? Should we be concerned?

This is why we can not have nice things.. We break them before we even really get to use it.

What are the chances this is something benign?

I have never had to use a walking boot in my life, anyone out there who's used it for less than a broken bone?

I find it hard to come to the conclusion that this is something serious, given that he could not have been injured when he landed off the plane, and he is walking on his own in a boot.

What applications is such a boot used in?

I hope that's just minor ankle sprain, and he'll be back on the court soon. Waiting 1 year sucked, I don't know if I could deal with it again ...

I saw Sonny Weems wear it when he had his ankle sprained.

Could be Dr. Mufasa as well. He seemed a little too sure Jonas wouldn't get a 2nd contract...

Jonas had 3-4 sprained ankle episodes last season, hopefully this is something that was found during medical exam and it is more like an old injury consequence.
