Quick search says he had the surgery on Feburary 26th to fix the turf toe issue.
Ajay Mitc had the same injury. Surgery on January 10th, played again on April 11th.
Meaning that Sorber should already be fully cleared for basketball activities.
I Think teams maybe gun shy about his foot, and we not only have two picks, they’re both before anyone else’s second pick.

I suspect Sorber got a wink deal with the Spurs and just playing it low profile.
Oh yeah, I think he’ll be fine, and supposedly ready for SL by all accounts. There’s still a risk though. Some guys have this become recurring. I’m not sure if I had a lottery pick, and no other pick, or something really late in the round that I’d pick him.
A grade 3 turf toe requiring surgery takes about 6 months to heal and be able to do light practice
I don't know about , but I just thought I'd add that in Givony's latest mock, he has Sorber going 17 to MIN but does mention the Spurs are a potential landing spot... but most pertinently he says Sorber will miss summer league because of the injury.
I'm not vouching for the accuracy of this report, just passing the info along.
from what I read he won't be able to play Summer League
Somewhere else, I read that he’d be ready to go for SL. It actually doesn’t matter to me. The Spurs usually play their FRPs a game and a half in Vegas, then shut them down. I can miss that without a fuss.
SL is overrated. top picks play 2 or 3 games and then get shut down. it wouldn't matter if Sorber missed it.
I was in Vegas and had a 7-leg parlay that had the Spurs losing to the Blazers in SL last year, based on how bad the Spurs looked in the CA Classic. I won the first 3 legs before the Spurs game started and the MGM app gives you buy-out options to cash out early. I got nervous and cashed out. Luckily I did... the Spurs ended up winning that game and it would have crashed my Parlay... the other 6 legs all hit correctly.
This is my Summer League story.
Remember last year when Reed played one summer league game and they were like "he's to good shut him down he's the rockets starting point guard going forward"
You sound like Ruth on Ozark, which is a good thing. I, too, 'don't know about ,' but I'm thinking Sorber might be a good add. Malauch won't be there at #14.
That's exactly the line I'm quoting. All time classic, tbh
Yeah, a classic indeed!!
Listen if they need to get a center for Wemby I will buy in. I like queen or sorber tho out of what’s available tho.
Already talking like a spur
My 1st choice at #14. I just hope he’s still there when Spurs pick.
They passed on KD so Sorber could have #35.
I wonder if with Pop taking a smaller role with the team if the CIA stuff is going to decrease. By that I mean, will these media reports of the Spurs thinking this or that actually have more validity or is R.C. and Wright sowing disinformation.
Watched this Thomas Sorber interview and came away impressed. Used to be soccer goalie until 8th grade and played Quarterback for the short time he played Football. I’m a big believer playing multiple sports will help you with your footwork, hands and coordination.
Between Beringer and Sorber Spurs might be picking a former Goalie to protect the rim.
Normally the Spurs don't signal this hard.
There was a video of Wemby also being one as a kid.
Tbh, I'm also in camp Sorber/Coward, hopefully we get one of the two.
What's the big deal about this guy? Just seems like an unremarkable back-to-the-basket big that doesn't really do what we are desperately lacking -- shooting.
edit: lol Roy Hibbert

THIS IS THE WAY!
(Can't wait until we draft one of these two and then immediately trade him for a 20132 pick, tbh)
