Dante Opts for Surgery

[Getting Traded]

We need to start a new thread. I wouldn't have known about it if I hadn't gone back in the other thread. Or just change the title of the other one.

Bummer.

prob the right choice He'd hate to do what MKG did with the same result.

I'm actually glad and I think it's the right call. The worst case scenario would have been trying to come back this year only to re-injure it and have to have surgery anyway. This way he can get it over with and come back healthy next year.

Just 1 season I'd like the jazz to be healthy. Makes me hate sports sometimes. My teams are always freaking hurt.

I feel the same way, Mariners in baseball last season, and now the Packers, and of course the Jazz.

And don't get me started on my teams down here.

It's the right choice. Sucks the injury bug has already hit big time.

I am not glad at all. I do trust the fact that he did all he could to sort out what was best. Best of luck to him in the recovery.

It's probably in the best interests of Dante long-term. Hard to say how it will work out for the Jazz.

sucks having a question mark over Dante's future with the Jazz.

Season is over for him and the jazz should get an extra roster spot now.

Nope, not the way it works. There's no "injured reserve" in basketball. I think you need to have 4 players that are going to be out long-term before you get a roster spot. The injury exception in the NBA only gives you extra money to spend, but the team still has to clear a roster spot.
