How Are Our Injured Players Doing

Yeah I think this is true. I rolled mine badly once and couldn't walk on it unassisted for 3 weeks :)

yeah a mate i used to play with used to roll an ankle it seemed like every 2-3 games and not even that badly and miss a couple weeks. I could full on land on someone's foot and a few times thought i'd cracked my ankle in half and after sitting on the bench for a few mins i was right to run. Just luck with genetics

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.

Genetics is where it's at. I have dislocated my right platella 7 friggin times in my life. Have a minor connective tissue disorder. When I twisted my ankle that time, I feel like I dislocated momentarily...
 
Coach will stick him on his medication and he'll be fine.

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... :(

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.
