How Are Our Injured Players Doing

I'm disappointed for him personally that he won't be part (potentially) of this strong resurgence over the next month or so. Jazz are going to get good quickly in the next little while - and would have been great to see if Exum could perhaps dominate in his back-up role on a nightly basis as the schedule eases... :(
 
I sprained mine pretty bad in college landing on an opposing players foot after a rebound. Had to have our trainer and an assistant help me limp off the court. Swelled up like a baseball. Missed 3 games and was less than 100% the rest of the season. Now I tend to roll my left ankle fairly easily to the inside, and have even had it touch the ground but it doesn't keep my from playing. Kinda crazy.
That's my recollection. I ran the state track meet the next day, but my time sucked. Seems like I was jumping off it. Reinjury was also hard to avoid. I *could play, but I would be worthless and it would postpone recovery.

I've had a billion lesser sprains that were no big deal.

Glad to hear Locke was overreacting.

You've got to be kidding I had a hard enough time trying to work out how to post it. Plus I cut fatter lines than that...
Love me a fat line. Not many things better

I watched the replay during the game and it looked bad to me as his ankle did touch the ground but it also looked like he got his weight off it very quickly.

Can't believe no one has posted picks of it yet.

I'll say he can play in a week, but likely misses two...

I have had a high ankle sprain and a billion other ankle sprains... I could not walk after the high ankle sprain... literally crawled from my car to my house. It hurt so bad I was on the ground for a long time... was on crutches for 2 weeks. Word is Dante was walking after. Ankle sprains always look gross.
 
. Ankle sprains always look gross.

When I see them I cringe and grab my ankle like I can feel their pain. I hate ankle sprains. I have the same reaction to seeing ankle sprains that I have when I see groin shots. I hate those too

I thought Exum was going to be the first one back but it looks like he'll probably end up being out the longest. 3 of our next 4 games are against the Clippers, Blazers and Nuggets, it's going to be tough to beat them while this short handed.
