Player Harper injury update

[spursparker9]

That means he‘ out for 5-6 weeks with how the Spurs are treating injuries

I think it will 8 weeks.

 

[Em-City]

I think it will 8 weeks.

back by christmas IMO

 

[ambchang]

Right when he was on an absolute tear. Goddamn. But at least it's not as bad as I feared.

Buddy, too soon.

 

[Fireball]

this means non-Wemby minutes will be unwatchable for the next few weeks as well ... i hate this

Fox will hopefully be back within the next few games, one of him and Castle will always be on the floor, much like one of Castle/Harper was up until now.

Welp I was really looking forward to seeing the Fox, Harper, and Castle lineup.

Initially my mind went to a worst case scenario as non contact injuries are usually a bad sign but thankfully it is not as bad of an injury as we all fear. I'm guessing he will be back early December.

you know its always more exciting to watch the rookies ... but you are right ... hope Fox returns this week

 

[RC_Drunkford]

I'd rather have him out for 6 weeks than for this to be a recurring issue.
Sucks, but it's still the best case scenario considering what could've happened.

definitely gotta be extra careful with calf injuries. You don't want him to tear an ACL.

Isn't the Achilles that you can tear if you have calf issues? I thought I read last season that is was calf injuries/calf issues leading to Achilles tears?

 

[Bodhi]

This season is looking like it'll be one of those years where someone important is always hurt and the team is never fully healthy. By the time they are, it'll be Feb/March and they wont have the chemistry.

I think both is possible. When I had my ACL tear, I had calf issues prior to that. Took me years to make a connection tbh

Don't have to look too far. IIRC both Durant and Haliburton were dealing with calf strains leading up to their Achilles injuries.

And Lillard.
All played through calf injures which led to Achilles tears.

Conversely, Milwaukee chose wisely when they shut down Giannis in the playoffs two years ago when he developed a calf strain. Don't mess around with calf strains.
