According to google, surgical repair of a fibula fracture can take 3-12 months recovery time. I'm not finding a lot of good comparisons for NBA players, as most of the ones that were big news (Paul George, Gordon Hayward) were tibia fractures not fibula fractures (fibula is less severe than tibia).
I'm currently hoping he can start rehab by the end of the season and be ready to go by early next season. That's probably best case scenario. Unfortunately he'll very likely miss having a normal off season. Worst case scenario... well, I'm not going to put that out in to the universe.

Never. It's a season ender. That's obvious. We wont know the severity until we see him play again.

I'm not feeling any better about this a day later. This is a huge blow to the rebuild. With 3 draft picks in the upcoming draft, extension decisions, etc., we really need as much information as possible on these young guys by the end of the year.

In a season with very few interesting trends to watch, this is such a big crap.
Wish Taylor a full recovery.

If they need to do surgery and not just set the bone and ankle the injury is more severe than I had hoped. Perhaps the docs will tell the unwashed how many screws and other hardware had to be attached.

Prayers for Taylor. The only good thing that can be seen is it happened while he was quite young and has a better chance of recovering more fully. It's a lower point than I thought we'd see this year.
Well if we hit rock bottom this year the media can’t now say we tanked.
We are just plagued by injuries.

I think he has shown plenty. He is a very good defender. Good finisher at the rim and is a good shooter.

He was struggling shooting this year and doesn't even get look sat the rim unless they're wide open and uncontested.
He'll go into year 3 as a guy that has played 43 games with 0 important minutes under his belt

There are updates on Hendricks. Don't have time to post the tweets right now, but they are targeting him to be back by training camp. He'll be off crutches and start traveling with the team in January.
He's also saying that he slipped on water on the court causing the injury.
