He will be more likely to have injury issues playing PF than he will at SF.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

He better man up and drink/eat more calcium.

MKG better man up? haha

MKG plays harder than nearly any player I've ever seen.

He makes Kenneth Faried look like Bo Diaw in terms of effort.

I meant man up and every since of the word of becoming more durable.

Yeah I know what you mean but unfortunately him playing so hard leads to injuries.

Luckily they've only been freak accidents and nothing as worrying as Beal's shin.

I'd suggest other players on our team man up and start playing D, so that MKG doesn't have to put his body at risk as much.

Calcium will help. Idk how he got hurt in the offseason that lead to the shoulder surgery but all of his serious in-game injuries that lead to lengthy timetables that I can remember have been freak accidents that weren't really hustle plays. Just typical basketball plays where he may have got fouled attempting a layup or landing wrong doing something common.

Am I the only one that heard Collins say that MKG may return to action during this road trip?

I'm pretty sure Clifford said all our injured players would be back except for Cody.

He said everybody but Cody is likely to be back before the end of the road trip.

I guess that includes Al.

He mentioned MKG, Batum, and Lamb as being "very close." Cody had a bit longer and no mention of Al.

The radio broadcast? On television Stephanie just said that we are hoping it's by the end of the road trip and we have two games left. She did say he looks better and better with every practice. All of this is paraphrased of course.
