Re: TJ Warren out Indefinitely After Foot Stress Fracture
This sucks but thankfully we have Doug and Justin to soak up minutes. Unfortunately every single one of our starters has some level of injury concerns so it was kinda bound to happen.

The string of injuries these players have had really is amazing.

Re: TJ Warren out Indefinitely After Foot Stress Fracture
Looking at the big picture, if Pacers have to be hit with their fair share of injuries this season, this is probably the most favourable outcome out of most other possibilities
It's far from ideal, but if the team has to offer up a starter as sacrifice to the basketball injury gods, it may as well be Warren
Hopefully this appeases them enough that they'd leave the rest of the roster alone
Besides, looking on the bright side, this gives Doug and Aaron the chance to shine, and judging by just now's game, they certainly are rising to the occassion

This ain't good - I believe he had this same issue a few years back with the Suns. Definitely going to miss his ability to just go out and get a bucket. Hope we see him back soon.

Re: TJ Warren out Indefinitely After Foot Stress Fracture
Big bummer. Let us hope we will not rush the return of Goga with so few capable bigs on our roster now.
Silver lining, better now than in the playoffs (like Domantas) and with this roster, I'll sign up for only 1 injured starter at the time.
We got plenty of firepower left, that's the big advantage of building a roster without a supreme player.

Re: Update: TJ Warren out For Season After Foot Fracture
Well that's not good news. I suppose the silver lining is that, if it were to happen, early is best for him hopefully getting back during the season and for Indy not extending him for him just to get injured again.

Re: Update: TJ Warren out For Season After Foot Fracture
It’s crazy that I recall a tweet saying he was playing basketball and enjoying it ??
Of course the Pacers wanted him back to start the season so they could see the starting lineup together for once but not happening. Sucks for TJ because it’s a contract year and sucks for Pacers because it’s gonna be hard to warrant paying up next year for a player coming off injury. Kinda like Oladipo situation except Oladipo did them the favor of declining the offer.

I wonder if this makes keeping Lamb, at least for a bit longer, now a viable option? I know he's not a SF at all, but if we're left with just Holiday and Martin, we're going to be in for some issues.

Just threw a monkey wrench into TJ being the defensive 4.
