He should sit till AT LEAST game 4. Even at worse case scenario that would put us at 2-1.

Isn't a bone bruise just painful? I mean Rudy can play, if he can handle the pain. He might have to adjust the way he plays, which makes him less effective and prone to other types of injuries. But I believe he'll play if he's needed. Say if Clips steal home court back.

it's more than pain. Performance (lift, change of direction, recovery, etc.) is impacted in ways not reducible to 'pain'.

After seeing that video, I think the earliest he will come back will be game 1 against the Warriors.

Fixed.

Holy crap, y'all. That's some encouragement right there.




Embiid was dealing with a meniscus tear. Not remotely comparable, IMO.

Yet he was still doing between the leg dunks months before he ever played. Hell, almost a year before he played.

The meniscus tear is the most recent injury. What sidelined him his first two years was a recurring microfracture of the navicular bone in his (right?) foot.

Also worth noting: Embiid hasn't played a single game of importance in his NBA career.

Wes, it very well could be a while before he's able to play. But maybe not. I'm currently in a default HOPE mode for some reason, which goes against my general inclinations when it comes to the Jazz. I usually expect the worst and sort of hope for slightly better.

After seeing the video if he was hurt badly Jazz would not let him even attempt what he is doing.
This is a good sign he will be back sooner than later.

Seriously though, this is all the churro's fault. There is some bad juju with that dessert. We would be better to never speak of it again. The churro has done nothing but bring us pain and suffering, we need to trade it to the Washington Wizards.

1-0.

Rudy was shooting shots and lifting off his knee. Very good signs. He'll miss game 2 but I wouldn't completely rule out a return in Game 3 or 4.

Look at Burks ball boy skills! There is nothing that guy can't do.

Seriously though, awesome to see Rudy moving and shooting! Straight drilling those jumpers.
