It's Bruce Walton's fault - no doubt in my mind.
Is anybody here a marine biologist?

Eric Koreen @ekoreen

Jonas Valanciunas hurt his ankle working out on Saturday. Team is hopeful it isn't serious. More information tomorrow.


I'm sure it's not anything that serious. We still got 5 weeks until the season starts. We'll be fine.

Someone needs to follow the Lithuanian papers. I know that lrytas.lt is the biggest one. Skim for Jonas pic and use Google Chrome to translate. You know they will have a better scoop.

No, but training camp does, which is equally important.

Training camp is NOT as important as the regular season. Not even close.

Hey everybody, according to Jonas, its a minor injury, nothing too serious. Now take a deep breath, relax, and have a good night.

They said it was a light injury. Nothing major, just an ankle twist, and in a week he will train at full force.

He'll definitely play up the "this happens all the time" angle.

Not necessarily about him inevitably sucking, but we all know in Raptorland that missing even a week of training camp is a built in excuse for the whole season. So no matter how well Jonas plays, BC can sell to us that he'll be even better with a full training camp.
