Poor Arthur.

Poor Arthur.

Indeed. Hopefully he can bounce back from this setback.

Weird thread

Weird thread

You'll call this thread great once the fantasy league is underway and you know which injured players to drop. Just ignore the fact that ESPN will also have the information.

John Wall will miss 8 weeks for the Wizards. Speaking of the Wizards, Nene is recovering from plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

Hopefully the rest-and-rehab works and Wall won't need to have surgery. It will be enough for the Wizards to be without Wall for the first month of the season.

Here's a shocker: Eric Gordon will be limited in camp due to knee soreness.

Royce White isn't at the Rockets' camp due to anxiety issues.

Hopefully this won't be something that plagues him throughout his career, but that could well be the case.

Whoa. This board would be freaking out if we were in the Rockets situation.

Would you blame them, considering that the Jazz are still paying Luther Wright and that White's anxiety issues were very well documented going into the draft?

I was just meaning that would suck way bad to have your first rounder not in camp because of that.

I would probly be leading the freak out charge!

Update on Royce White. He and the Rockets have reached an agreement where White will purchase a bus (and assume liabilty on it) and drive to and from games as often as possible. I hope it works out at least to the point where if White can play in the NBA, his anxiety won't hold him back.

Roger Braille is on the inactive list due to a busted attitude. Injury happened some time last season and got progessively worse. As no improvement has been noted, it is thought this may be career-ending.

I hope he gets another chance. In somewhere that isn't Utah.

Funny thing about Plantar Fasciitis. Pau Gasol had that for the two seasons w/ the Grizz up until he was traded. Then it finally cleared up and he could play.

It's intersting how things just magically work themselves out.

OJ Mayo is out with a cut on his shooting hand. It seems as though it was sustained by him being a klutz and slipping on some stairs. He missed an intrasquad scrimmage on Saturday.

Dirk Nowitzki's knee keeps swelling up. He's trying to put off any surgery until after the season, but I personally think he'll need it before then.

[nightmare3983]

Chauncey Billups went through practice and a scrimmage with no restrictions. He's looking to return in November or December after tearing his ACL last February.

 

[nightmare3983]

Kevin Love will miss 6-8 weeks with a broken hand. The only real silver lining here is that it happened now, with about 2 weeks to go before the season starts, as opposed to during the season, which would cause him to miss more games.
