Not was I was hoping to see.
At least it’s not Month-to-Month 😁
Time for NAW and TBJ to step up.
Goddamnit
Man, this sucks. What are we at, only 27 total games between this season and last with our starting 5?
I also hate to say it, but… is Jaden starting to get a reputation for being perpetually injured? He has yet to play a full season (granted last year the wall punch was anomaly).
Hoping for a speedy recovery.
Crap deal, injury’s are part of the game that everybody obviously deals with during a season
Good thing we’re deep enough to keep the ship floated until he returns
Damn. Get better soon
heal up king
Luxury of having TBJ to fill in for NAW off the bench while Naw fills in for jaden.
Rest up, King Slim.
Good time to get the bench guys more run so they have more confidence when we need em most!
I think Wolves are equipped very well to weather Jaden’s absence. NAW and TBJ will play a lot. Also, a chance for Wendell to step up. He has had good games in G this season, perhaps he can give us 8-10 good minutes each game.
On the bright side, loved what TBJ showed yesterday in his engagement and intensity.
Lawnmower time
Never good to see and I hope Jaden come overcome it quickly but at least we’re at a point where we finally have some depth for once. Also good to see if NAW and Troy Brown can step up and in his absence before we reach the deadline.
Pretty much what you should have expected. An ankle sprain that bad is likely a multi-week injury. Just gotta hope it’s not a bad high-ankle sprain which can be 4-6 weeks.
Also, this may knock Jaden out of All-NBA consideration. He’s already missed 2 games to start the year, and I believe you have to play at least 20 minutes to get credit for a game played (I might be wrong there, though), which means he wouldn’t get credit for the 2nd Golden State game or last night, which puts him up to 4 missed games. That means he can only miss 13 more games before he misses the cut off for All-defense. And if this injury keeps him out for, say, 4 weeks, he’d miss 10 more games.
Does anyone have a clip on the play?
I so was ready to shoot up the building and myself
