Dante's Injury -- how serious is it?

[Getting Traded]

I read that Dante was getting an MRI today. Has anyone heard the results. It sounds as if it isn't that serious.

 

[Siro]

After the game they said Hamstring soreness.

4 - 6 weeks to live according to the Sandy Best Buy.

I asked Fesenko what he thought of Exum's injury. He said "If he dies, he dies."

He's listed day to day with a strained hamstring. Looks like they already ruled him out for game 5.

Day to day... honestly best new possible, but likely out for the season

Good to know. I'm surprised there haven't been more enthusiastic responses about his play the last two games. This is the best I've ever seen him play.

Everyone is still in shock over the injury. When he collapsed in the tunnel it looked like it could be bad. He has played well, especially on the defensive end, I just wish he could develop a jumper.

i can't believe he suffered another season ending injury ...

When he skipped the bench and ran into the tunnel I actually thought it could be something devastating. So while he's probably done for the series, it will have no long lasting effects.

High hamstring. 4-6 weeks.

That's got to be some kind of record.

I don't think it is that simple. If you look at it in isolation probably so. But if you look at how much time he has missed for injury as a whole this simply adds to the caution. I imagine some GM's won't care but I would be surprised if the pattern doesn't gives some GM's pause.

if it were a succession of soft tissue injuries as in Danilo Gallinari sure, red flags. these are all unrelated pot luck. Understand where you're coming from but a strained hammy is run of the mill for an athlete.

I thought birds gave you your information?

 

[sgjazzfan]

I'm just sad that he'll miss time in the offseason to train. I hope he spends about 10-12 hours a day training with Mitchell on his ball handling and shooting.

 

[yamers]

he will return game 7 vs lebron james?

Dude will you stop making threads about injuries to our players?

You make a thread guaranteeing Rubio will play in game 4. He doesn't.
You make a thread saying Dantes' injury doesn't look serious. He's out for game 5.

STOP.

If you're going to make some threads about injuries can you make them about Rockets players at least?
