START THE TANK!!!

lol - all jokes aside, hopefully he's not out long. I do think this is a good opportunity for Bacon with the 2nd unit, and for the rookies to find their niche and not default to Ross.

Oh good... camp just opened and we already have our excuse to run it back in 2022.

Seriously though, this should be inconsequential as long as there are no blood flow issues. Let's see if our medical team can screw this one up.

Any docs in the building that can shed light on why Ross would be ok to keep shooting jump shots and running with a hairline fracture in his big toe? Is it so minor that the only real risk is if someone basically lands on it?

edit: or I guess maybe the fracture is in a position where the movement is only bad from side to side?

Considering our medical team history, he'll be out for the year.

Clifford is so bummed that he'll have to play Cole now. Only time he ever plays young guys is if he's forced to.

Good luck to Cole in trying to figure out how to play with the team without being given a role or guidance. Luckily for him i think he'll freelance just fine. His decision making is his strength. :lol:

So... this means our bench scoring option isn't just " Pass it to Ross for a 3 or maybe a drive "

I wanna see what this does. Make Cole go UNC " shoot first, shoot second, ok let's pass....nope lemme shoot " , MCW wild drive or Okeke 3?

Given the Magic have questionable doctors he should be out for the season. Time table 4 weeks to 6 months.....

YEAH what is it with our medical staff? I havent been this worried about our pkayers health since the grant hill/tmac era where every game I wonder who would be suiting up.

Tank time.

Ross himself said in interview that if it's needed he could play today.
He even joked about injury.
Relax people, it's nothing major.

This is mostly about not having one injury becoming another one. For example an overcompensation can lead to ligament issues. Nobody wants that.

So the Magic will take him easy through the pre-season to be ready for opening night.
