OMFKG! The Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Thread

[Eoghan]

Crap. What's the deal with this type of injury? How long will it take to fully heal? Will he need surgery?

It's a lot like tendinitis. Really, the only thing you can do is rest it, ice it, and keep it warm/stretched once it heals and the inflammation is down. The more you stay off it the sooner it goes away.

or if you're a mad Aussie Rules player, you completely rupture it as it apparently heals quicker

surprised it wasnt

Bonnell: Tragic news out of Bobcats practice. MKG healthy, Taylor facing drop in minutes.

i wouldn't play MKG much vs Miami unless he feels great, if he is hurting LeBron is gonna go after him hard, just sacrifice JT or see if Tollivers size bothers him at all

MKG is back!!! Plantar fasciitis isn't a major injury and it could be tolerated. We need a win against Miami in case we actually end up a 8th seed in this weak Eastern Conference. I want to see if we can compete. MKG is the best defender I seen on LeBron other than Jimmy Butler.
