Id say best case: sore ankle- back on Sunday
3 weeks is close to worst case, not best

Shut him down until the playoffs. Just make sure to put him on a diet.

What the **** is with teams getting away with clearly non-basketball plays on us? Robinson should have been thrown out 100% he intentionally took down our player in a dangerous and reckless way and there was no play on the ball. That's an ejection. No way any other 'star' player would be allowed to be hurt like that. The refs have habitually let other teams play physical against us without keeping control of the game. It's unacceptable.

I've got a taste for bloodlust too, but that play was an accident - just an overly enthusiastic, clumsy scrub trying to earn coach's favour. Wouldn't make sense for anyone to go all Ibaka on the guy over an accident.

I wouldn’t go all Ibaka at him, but at least go chest to chest and tell him off

Hope he's back for the playoffs. The rest of the games don't matter.

I hear you...but it was just a dumb, clumsy play, it wasn't on purpose imo.

I've seen the replay a few times, and it doesn't look like that scrub fell on Kyle's ankle too hard. The ankle itself didn't twist much at all.


You say that but a 250 lbs human fell directly on the back of his leg. The only good news is that it looked like Lowry could at least put some weight on it which would seem to rule out a grade three sprain. Then again, he's a pretty tough mofo.

I always hate seeing guys grab for that high ankle area right away. Those typically take a little longer to heal.

Mutually exclusive. If Lowry sits then he eats. He needs a hobby more than a diet to get his mind off those Taco Bell BOGO burritos.
